In this episode, Dr. Daniel Murphree interviews Gary Mormino, emeritus professor of history at the University of South Florida at St Petersburg. In the interview, Mormino discusses the special issue he recently guest edited for the FHQ titled, “500 Years of Florida History in the 20th Century”. This issue includes the final component of a series of six special issues published in recognition of the quincentennial of Ponce de Leon’s first visit to Florida in 1513. After the Mormino interview, the episode also includes two tributes to Michael Gannon and Jerold Shoffner, scholars who passed away in April of 2017.
