David McCheyne Newell



David McCheyne Newell (23 March 1898-1986) was an American journalist, novelist, and children's writer perhaps most famous for his books regarding early twentieth century rural life in western central Florida. In If Nothin' Don't Happen and The Trouble of It Is the fictional narrator, Billy Driggers, tells true-to-life stories about the people of Florida's Gulf Hammock (the coastal land between Cedar Key and the Withlacoochee River) and the surrounding environs during the interwar years.
