Description - History of the Third Seminole War by Joe Knetsch
A full history of the Third Seminole War (18481859), with a detailed narrative of the war and its causes, containing numerous first-hand accounts. Spanning a period of over forty years (18171858), the three Seminole Wars were America's longest, costliest, and deadliest Indian wars, surpassing the more famous ones fought in the West. After an uneasy peace following the conclusion of the second Seminole War in 1842, a series of hostile events followed by a string of murders in 1849 and 1850 made confrontation inevitable. Written in a clear, easy-to-follow style, the work is intended for both a general and scholarly audience and will be of value to those interested in Florida history, American history in general, military history, Native American studies, and nineteenth century subjects. AUTHOR: Dr. Joe Knetsch is recently retired as a senior historian for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, author of Florida's Seminole Wars, 1817-1858 (Arcadia Press, 2003), Fear and Anxiety on the Florida Frontier: Articles on the Second Seminole War (Seminole Wars Foundation, 2008), and five other books on Florida history. 50 illustrations
