Ask and you receive
A few weeks ago I pointed to state encyclopedias in Tennessee, Georgia, and North Carolina (Texas has one too), and wondered why there wasn't one for Florida. Well, now I know. There's a Floripedia, part of a great site of Florida teaching resources called Exploring Florida, from the University of South Florida. This one is being built and recently added lots of entries from a 1904 history of Florida.
