    Death at Dozier School is the history of the controversial and oft-sensationalized "Boot Hill" Cemetery at the former Dozier School for Boys in Marianna, Florida. The historic cemetery dates back more than 100 years to the earliest days of the Florida Reform School. Used for nearly 75-years as a burial place for the students and employees that lost their lives at Dozier School, its story is one of sadness, pain, heroism and courage.

    Milly Francis is the true story of the first woman to receive a special medal of honor from the U.S. Congress. Born in the Creek Nation of Alabama in around 1803, Milly was a first hand witness to the rise and fall of her father's religious movement and the Creek War of 1813-1814. By the time she was 15 years old, she had survived three wars and a desperate flight for survival to Spanish Florida. It was at that age that she saved the life of an American soldier named Duncan McCrimmon, a man who had come to Florida with Andrew Jackson's army to make war on her people during the First Seminole War of 1817-1818. Her act of mercy stunned a grateful nation and sparked a reconsideration of America's attitudes toward its original inhabitants, a process that continues to this day. In Milly Francis, Dale Cox has captured the story of a person, a time and a people. The story he weaves is touching, tragic, heroic and real.
