About the Book

An early history of Lake Helen, Florida from the late 1800's to 2007. Includes many photographs and stories of early life in Florida. A project by the Lake Helen League for Better Living.
About the Author: Dorothy Schneider Dorothy passed January 1, 2010. Lake Helen lost one of its biggest supporters. She and her husband Max were ardent supporters of not only the League for Better Living which they co-created with Jack and Betty Doughty, also of Lake Helen, and were supporters of the Friends of the Library. It was the association with the Friends of the Library that the idea of writing a history of Lake Helen spawned. The book was self published and the profits from the sale of the book went to help pay for the construction of the new library. They were instramental in forming the comittee to initiate the Sydney Johnson survey of historic homes in Lake Helen in 1980. From its findings the Lake Helen Historic District was created by the city and added to the National list of Historic Places. She and her husband Max were reporters in Chicago and retired to Lake Helen and took over the little cottage on Lakeview Drive just down the street from her beloved Hopkins Hall. I doubt that she gave much thought about how her life in Lake Helen was going to impact it's history but it did. Lake Helen is one of those communities that invites you to come and stay with its tree lined streets, and neat yards with flower beds and porches and turn-of-the-century homes. But when you think you've arrived fo enjoy the peace and solitude you discover that you are soon engaged in helping to save the community and preserve the qualities that attracted you in the first place.
