The Miami Beach-based architecture and interior design firm presents luxurious private residences from Orlando to Key West, reinterpreting Florida styles from Mediterranean to Art Deco. Though the husband-and-wife team of Taylor & Taylor travel widely to find design inspiration in the U.S., Europe, South and Central America, and the Caribbean—they always retain their first love: the historic architecture of Florida itself and its blend of rustic and romantic, from Italianate palazzos to Art Deco hotels and Key West’s bungalows. Classic Florida Style presents ten coastal residences in resplendent photography to match the tropical hues and lush natural surroundings of the sunshine state. Design lovers will see not only homes that integrate orange groves and sunsets reflecting off Biscayne Bay, but also gorgeous interiors that take full advantage of Florida’s crystalline light—superbly crafted spaces in which the ocean breezes can almost be felt ruffling the curtains. Locales range from a private island near Key West, to Coral Gables, Fisher Island, and Lake Thonotosassa, northeast of Tampa—even the South Carolina home of one Florida-minded football giant, a former quarterback for the Miami Dolphins. Whether drawing on the architecture of British Colonial Bermuda, or the Spanish-inspired designs of George Washington Smith and Wallace Neff in California, each home takes full advantage of glamorous indoor-outdoor living and a seamless blend of native Florida materials and singular antiques.

In "Scenes and Adventures in Affghanistan," William Taylor delivers a vivid and immersive account of his experiences during the tumultuous period of British intervention in Afghanistan. Richly detailed, the narrative combines a mix of travelogue and military history, allowing readers to engage with the landscapes and cultures that defined this critical geopolitical context. Taylor's literary style is marked by a direct yet evocative prose, offering both firsthand accounts and reflections that shed light on the complexities of imperial ambition and the profound impacts on local societies. Written in the mid-19th century, the book serves as a crucial text in understanding colonial narratives and the often romanticized view of imperial endeavors, juxtaposed against the harsh realities faced by both soldiers and civilians alike. William Taylor, a soldier and adventurer, was deeply influenced by his experiences in Afghanistan, where he served during a period characterized by conflict and cultural exchange. His background reflects a keen awareness of the geopolitical intricacies of the time, as well as a personal commitment to documenting the lives and landscapes encountered during his service. Taylor's perspectives are steeped in the ethos of Victorian exploration and the moral questions surrounding imperialism, which provide readers with valuable insight into the mindset of the era. This remarkable work is highly recommended for historians, students, and anyone fascinated by the complexities of colonial expansion. Taylor's engaging narrative not only captures the essence of his personal adventures but also invites a critical examination of the legacies of empire. Readers will find themselves drawn into a world that is both exotic and challenging, rendering "Scenes and Adventures in Affghanistan" a compelling addition to the canon of travel and military literature.

A powerful young adult novel about an unlikely friendship that helps a young man heal emotional and physical scars. “There are two sides to Damon. You can see it in his face. Good Face. Bad Face. But which is the true Damon? The one who strikes out and asks questions later? Or the one who acts out of kindness? When Esther enters Damon’s life, he finds his mask beginning to slip. And even he doesn’t know what he’ll find behind it.” An elderly woman, Esther, is gypsy-ish and lives as a squatter. A young man, Damon has a facial scar caused when he was in a car accident. He’s angry and isolated and wears a mask as both a protection and a barrier. Both he and Esther are outsiders. When they meet and build a friendship he learns about physical scars and emotional scars; about how, as the old adage goes, ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder’ and also how 'beauty is only skin deep but ugliness goes right to the bone'. This gripping novel by an award-winning writer also explores disabilities – how some may be overcome, accepted and, in some cases, put towards a positive end.

It was possible that the young man had just arrived and was fatigued by the trials and perils of his trip, for he must have come by some roundabout way; and very likely he felt nervous and uneasy in the midst of people who were loyal to the government and the Union. Captain Passford decided to say nothing more to his nephew at present as to the occasion and the manner of his visit to Bonnydale, and during the evening meal he avoided all allusion to the war, so far as it was possible to do so. Mrs. Passford and Florry received him very kindly, but following the example of the head of the family, they spoke only of domestic affairs, and of the relations of the two families as they had been before the war.Between the brothers Homer and Horatio Passford, even from their early boyhood, a remarkably 19 strong fraternal affection had subsisted. Both of them were high-toned men, and both of them had always been faithful in the discharge of every duty to God and man. Each of them had a wife, a son and a daughter, and two happier families could not have been found on the face of the earth. They were not only devoted to each other, each within its own circle, but the two families were as nearly one as it was possible to be.Captain Horatio had formerly been a shipmaster, and had accumulated an immense fortune. Homer was less fortunate in this respect, and his tastes were somewhat different from those of his brother. He wanted to be a planter, and with the financial assistance of his brother, he went into the business of raising cotton near Mobile, in Alabama. But years before the war, he had paid off every dollar of his indebtedness to Horatio, and had made a comfortable fortune besides. The two families had visited each other as much an possible, and the captain, with his little family, had been almost to the plantation in the Bellevite, the magnificent steam-yacht of the Northerner.During the preceding winter, Captain Passford, his wife and son, had visited most of the islands of 20 the Atlantic; but the health of Miss Florry was considerably impaired, and the doctors would not permit her to make this sea-voyage, but recommended her to keep quiet in some southern locality. She had therefore passed the winter at Glenfield, which was the name of Homer Passford's plantation. On his return from this long cruise, the owner of the Bellevite obtained his first news that war existed between the North and the South from the pilot. The three members of the family on board of the steamer were greatly distressed over the fact that Florry was still at the home of her uncle in Alabama, within the enemy's lines.Without going on shore, Captain Passford decided to arm his yacht, which was large enough for a man-of-war, and hasten to Mobile Bay to bring back his daughter. He was in doubt with regard to the political feeling of Homer, but believed that he would still adhere to the government and the Union. It was a part of his mission to bring his brother and his family to his own home at Bonnydale. Mrs. Passford was sent on shore in a tug, and Christy, the son, was to go with her; but the young man, just entering his 21 seventeenth year, protested against being left at home, and as the captain believed that a patriotic citizen ought to be willing to give his all, even his sons, to his country, the young man went with his father. The mother was as devoted to her country as the father, and terrible as was the ordeal, she consented to part with him for such a duty.

"Down the Rhine" from William Taylor Adams. Pseudonym Oliver Optic, was a noted academic and author (1822-1897).

Memoirs of a leading children's author In his warm, witty and erudite memoir, William taylor writes about life as an author and teacher in rural New Zealand, raising two young sons as a solo father. Always a character, from 1960 to 1986 he taught in Central and the Lower North Island, usually in single or two-teacher schools. After his first book Burnt carrots don't have legs, a comic look at rural teaching, he wrote six adult novels. Principal of Ohakune Intermediate School from 1979-1986, and Mayor of Ohakune 1981-1988, his hilarious account of the unveiling of the Ohakune carrot is counterbalanced by the experiences of a gay man in public life during the passing of the Homosexual Law Reform Bill, which saw him chair rowdy public meetings with farmers and Christian fundamentalists. In 1986 he retired to write fulltime and for 15 years produced one or two books a year. His works have been adapted for television and the theatre, and some have been continously in print in the US for over twenty years. He has won the Choysa Bursary, writing fellowships to Palmerston North College of Education and the University of Iowa, numerous writing awards and an OBE for services to children's literature. Following major heart surgery in 1994 William taylor has lived quietly at Raurimu, and his delightfully self-deprecating memoir is destined to become a classic for all lovers of children's literature and good writing.
