Everyone has their own take on local history. This book takes a closer look at some of Tallahassee's well-known institutions, people, places, and events and gives the stories behind them. It also explores some history many have either forgotten or ignored. Tallahassee has many different faces depending on the people it impacted. From Fourth of July fireworks and fish-a-thon's to the beginnings of schools, jails and hospitals, each has a story. Tallahassee was a small southern town, but it has a prominent place in the Civil Rights movement, a story which many are not aware. It's all here, chronicled through the years with... the rest of the story.
Journey on the ultimate barbecue bucket list. The author and his son visit over 50 barbecue pits all over the south, looking for the best barbecue. The goal is to find out who does it best.

Lt. Bill Taylor knew that there was never a dull day on the Forgotten Coast but he was not quite ready for the Golden Monkey cartel. A murder rocks the small coastal village of Carrabelle, Fl and begins a chain of events that pit the Florida Marine Patrol and local law enforcement officers in a race to solve the crime and catch the smugglers.
Florida's new Net Ban law isn't the only thing Lt. Bill Taylor and his Marine Patrol Officers have to handle. A shrimpers unusual catch starts an investigation that will involve the FBI and a 1970s terrorist group. Throw in a shady State Senator, some rouge fishermen, and a magazine publisher running from the law, and you have a normal day on the Forgotten Coast.
A mystery boat with three dead bodies washes ashore and the Marine Patrol steps into action. Join Lt. Bill Taylor, Investigator Tony Nobles, and the rest of the local Marine Patrol Officers as they deal with enforcing the new Net Ban, drug smugglers, and a State Senator who they feel is hiding a shady past. On top of all that, Florida's first net ban trial starts with a young State's attorney pitted against a courtroom veteran. Just another exciting day on the Forgotten Coast!

Filled with images of the beauty of nature - the colors of the sunset, the feel of the wind with the approach of winter, the tastes of food in a cabin or from a campfire, the sound of quail and coyotes on a Texas ranch - the short stories and novellas of J. Kent Gregory explore the basic human yearning for the peace and healing found in the natural world. "A Place Apart" is a lyrical description of finding an untouched, separate, liminal dell. "Scouting with My Daddy", told from the perspective of a young boy, describes his introduction to the beauties and thrills of the woods by his protective father. In the title short story, "Sanctuary", two friends meet on a river near Canada to fish and find peace in the waning days of summer. "On the Gulf" follows one of the two friends as he escapes the Northern cold and a failing relationship to fish the surf and the Gulf Stream where he finds connection and shared loss with a trophy sailfish. In "The Forge" the two friends come together to fight a dangerous fire in the Valley of Virginia. The narrator of "Free and Happy, Wherever Home Is" discovers, to his surprise, a love for the land and animals on a dry Texas ranch. "A Caf Scene" is a short vignette where the narrator looks ahead from the waning of winter to summer amid a feast of the senses. In "Solitude" an older man, alone with his dog, gets in one last pheasant hunt before a winter storm and the unwanted arrival of visitors. In the final story, "Healing Waters", the narrator flies out West after a devastating loss to meet a young woman who introduces him to the rivers and waters of the Cascades and the Coastal Range.
