But it's always had a dark side. Just look at its signature event: a giant pirate parade.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNot only does Gasparilla honor the buccaneer traditions of theft, debauchery, and violence; its namesake pirate captain, Jose Gaspar, is a fake who probably never existed. And if there's any variety of crime baked into Florida's history, it's fraud. From the indigenous residents who supposedly conned Spanish explorers seeking the Fountain of Youth through the rolling cycles of real estate scams that have shaped the Sunshine State for the last century or so, the place is a grifter's native habitat.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781617759512\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 8.5 Inches, Length: 5.5 Inches, Weight: 1.06 Pounds, Width: 0.75 Inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e en\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colette Bancroft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53801825534259,"sku":"9781617759512","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3636\/7411\/files\/27357353482763.jpg?v=1785981707","url":"https:\/\/bookabaloo.com\/products\/tampa-bay-noir-1","provider":"Bookabaloo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
