This multimedia collection highlights the lives and work of two extraordinary Floridians – Marjory Stoneman Douglas and Marjorie Carr. These two women shared a love of the natural world; an interest in conservation and wildlife protection; and the courage to confront the potent influence of developers, boosters, and the Army Corps of Engineers in Florida. Each of these 'Marjories' was known for her exceptional intelligence, courage, persistence, and skills in persuasion. Marjorie Carr is best known for leading the long battle to stop the construction of the Cross Florida Barge Canal, a mammoth, multi-million dollar project traversing central Florida that threatened the area's ecosystem. Marjory Stoneman Douglas, environmental activist and author of the landmark book, Everglades, River of Grass, formed a grassroots organization, Friends of the Everglades, to stop an international jetport from being built in the Big Cypress.
