Description
Discover the remarkable history of the Seminole Wars... Free BONUS Inside!
From 1816 to 1858, three distinct conflicts raged across the Florida territory as the United States government sought to remove the Seminole people from their homeland. These wars were not merely about land acquisition -- they represented America's longest and costliest Indian wars and became entangled with one of the most divisive issues in American history: slavery.
What made the Seminole Wars unique was the tribe's willingness to accept escaped slaves into their communities, creating a multiracial alliance that threatened the southern plantation economy. This alliance faced the full might of the U.S. military, including future president Andrew Jackson, who championed Indian removal. Though most Seminoles were eventually relocated to Oklahoma, a small band managed to evade capture by retreating deep into the Everglades -- making them the only Native American tribe never to surrender formally to the United States.
Inside, you'll read about:
• Origin of the Seminole Tribe
• A Sanctuary for Slaves
• The First Seminole War
• The Second Seminole War
• The Third Seminole War
• The Legacy of the Seminole Wars
• And much more!
This book examines a critical but often overlooked chapter in early American history. The story of the Seminole resistance provides insight into the complex relationships between Native Americans, African Americans, and white settlers during the nation's formative years -- a legacy that culminated in the federal recognition of the Seminole Tribe of Florida in 1957.
