About the Author

A 52-year-old former environmental consultant, Marcus brings a seasoned perspective to the Florida wetlands. He grew up on the Gulf Coast and has witnessed the state’s rapid transformation over the decades, giving his writing a nostalgic yet realistic edge. Marcus enjoys documenting the quiet life of the state’s inland springs and the history of its cattle ranching heritage. He is a firm believer that Florida is best experienced away from the coastline and the humidity of the theme parks. In his spare time, he restores vintage binoculars for birdwatching.
