Red Patriots

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The latest history of the Seminole War was pub lished soon after the termination of hostilities, more than a half century ago. The present volume has been written more from the standpoint of the Indian, and includes much new and interesting information, and the correction of many erroneous ideas, in connection with almost every leading feature of Seminole history. New light has been shed, not only upon the earlier movements and struggles of this liberty-loving race, but upon their condition and customs in our present peaceful times. When the interest of the subject seemed to justify it, careful detail has been adopted, and in every part of the work the utmost accuracy has been the great end and aim.
