X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Carpenter Gothic Episcopal churches built 
 in the 1800s\, when Florida was still the nation&rsquo\;s raw southeastern
  frontier\, breathed the romantic sensibilities of England&rsquo\;s stone 
 parish churches into a new medium: wood. Together with their Carpenter Got
 hic counterparts elsewhere on the nation&rsquo\;s frontiers\, they elevate
 d the American wooden church to new heights of historicity\, imagination\,
  and beauty. Spires in the Sun author Jonathan Rich will discuss the histo
 ry of the oldest surviving wood-frame Episcopal churches in Florida includ
 ing those in Jacksonville.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Jonathan Rich is a retired attor
 ney who represented publicly held companies\, major banks\, and economic d

 ional trust company. He has served in leadership positions for several non

  rowing. He is a third-generation Floridian\, and has studied Florida huma
