Thanks for putting this together, great job! Your efforts are greatly appreciated. It amazes me how little is known about many aspects of Tampas history. You have done a great service to get the history ouit there.

This is a very interesting and informative video about the early history of Tampa and the surrounding area. It includes information about the geography of present day Tampa. The graphics are very well done. Highly recommend it.
