One of my favorite books about north Florida is Cross Creek, which is a sort of diary/memoir by author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, who wrote The Yearling. Rawlings lived in the back country out in a orange grove with few modern conveniences. She turned her wood closet into a bar, and made the best of it.
One of my favorite movies about Florida is John Sayles' Sunshine State.
I enjoy Hiassen's non-fiction too, such as Team Rodent.
I just read Swamplandia, and really enjoyed it.
