A LAND REMEMBERED is one of the most read books about the history of Florida and has been named best Florida book 10 times in a row! The book helped launch Patrick Smith to become a literary icon. He was inducted into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame and nominated multiple times for the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize in Literature. In June, he was presented the “Great Floridian” award by Governor Rick Scott.
Rick Smith, son of A LAND REMEMBERED author Patrick Smith, is a professional media producer touring Florida with a high energy, multimedia and multi-sensory presentation about his famous father’s life and the experiences that led him to write his books. Rick’s show combines humor and storytelling with videos, family photos, music, sound effects, and visual effects to bring the writer’s life into focus. Patrick himself makes several appearances throughout the video to tell fascinating and humorous stories about key experiences in his life.
