Abstract

Historical geography and regional interpretation are the analytical approaches employed here. D. W. Meinig suggests his American historical geography is both idiosyncratic and an uncommon application to historical questions (Meinig, 1986).  As America's best known living practitioner of the genre, his opinion is persuasive. This limited examination of the role played by Loyalists and Bahamians in shaping peninsular Florida fits that paradigm.
