Laura: I've long been drawn to time travel, most likely as a result of a very active  childhood imagination and a few really good children's novels that involved time  travel. In the Keep of Time was one, by Margaret J. Anderson, and Time  for Andrew: A Ghost Story by Mary Downing Hahn was another. In the  first, four children go into a deserted Scottish keep and come out into the dead  of night in medieval Scotland. In the second, two boys who look alike, but have  very different personalities, switch places in time, Andrew Tyler coming to1990  and Drew, his great nephew, going back to live Andrew's life in 1910. I  consciously drew from In the Keep of Time in my own novel, but it also  has some strong elements of Time for Andrew, in the concept of two very  different men trading places and lives.

The history of the state goes back 12,000 years when our first human population were hunter-gatherers, then again in 1513 when Ponce De León came and officially claimed the state for Spain. He was followed [...]]]></description>
