Craig's seventh book, "Welcome to Florida: True Tales from America's Most Interesting State" is now available. His former colleague at the "Tampa Bay Times," Colette Bancroft, and the paper's one-time book reviewer, joins us to discuss. Pick up Craig's book at your local, independent book store if you can.
