Abstract
In April 2013, Florida will commemorate Juan Ponce de León's historic voyage. Yet Ponce de León's arrival was, in several important ways, not just the beginning of Spain's presence in Florida, but in North America as a whole. Today, the historical Spanish influence on America is palpable—in culture, language, politics, and more.
