Hugh Gant - a relative of mine
I found out recently that Hugh Gant is related to me and I'm also from Tampa, Fl. Both of those combined kept my interest in this book. I never knew that there were gangsters from Central Florida much less related to me!!!! The book also gave me insight to the hay day of the gangsters and that era. I also have a more expanded thought on why my ggggrandfather Christopher C. Gant moved from Chipco, Fl to Tampa, FL. I enjoy reading about Florida history!!!

Three Stars
Good facts but dry reading, I had to work to finish it.

Names, dates and places. A record of outlaw escapades.
One of the "Gangsters" in this book was a relative, so I found it pretty informative. A good book. Butch Hunt
