I collect antique maps and books.

this one came up for auction.

"Travels through North & South Carolina, Georgia, east & west Florida, the Cherokee country, the extensive territories of the Muscogulges or Creek Confederacy, and the country of the Chactaws : containing an account of the soil and natural productions of those regions, together with observations on the manners of the Indians : embellished with copper-plates"

Yeah, that is the title of the book.

Published, 1791
Has a map in the book, showing East Coast of Florida near New Smyrna
Two wrecks offshore.
Can't touch them or even metal detect the beach.
Canaveral Seashore, Federal Park.
