Synopsis
The Okefenokee is nearly half a million acres of bog and swamp lying in south Georgia and north Florida. It is the largest blackwater wetland in North America. Almost all of these acres are protected by a National Wildlife Refuge, one of three access points to a land characterized by cypress, Spanish moss and alligators. Wade into the nature, history and regional culture of this national treasure. Meet animals named for the swamp-the Okefenokee fishing spider and the Okefenokee zale moth-as well as an imaginary resident, Pogo the Opossum. Join author Marie Lathers as she delves into the importance of the Okefenokee for Indigenous Americans, swampers' religious and musical practices and even Hollywood depictions of this unique habitat., Marie Lathers wades into the history and legends of the Okefenokee Swamp. The Okefenokee, nearly 440,000 acres of bog and swamp lying in south Georgia and north Florida, is the largest blackwater wetland in North America. Almost all of these acres are protected by a National Wildlife Refuge, one of three access points to a land characterized by cypress, Spanish moss, and alligators. This book, with its broad overview of the Swamp and more detailed focus on certain aspects, has something for everyone, the nature-minded, history buffs, and regional culture enthusiasts. Read about the animals named for the Swamp--the Okefenokee fishing spider and zale moth--the history of lumbermen in the Swamp, the religious and musical practices of Swampers, and the novels and movies set in the Land of the Trembling Earth, including, of course, the infamous opossum, Pogo.
