 Though Fort Myers is better known as the winter home of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, one of the most interesting historic homes belonged to William Burroughs (1870 - 1904). Burroughs was the inventor and manufacturer of many adding machines, hand calculators, and other business machines... quite cutting edge for their day.

Lovely sepia conversion that gives this old home just the right atmosphere reminiscent of that era. 7
