Becalmed In The Mullet Latitudes Review
Margaret Watson reviews Al Burt’s Becalmed In The Mullet Latitudes, praising its warm portrait of Florida’s old settlers and Cracker and Conch communities. The book surveys seven regions, relaying memories of self sufficiency, Prohibition era smugglers, Nazi subs offshore, and evolving towns from Destin to Key West, with Burt's affectionate, gently humorous tone.
