5.0 out of 5 stars A scholarly, accessible study, July 11, 2002
This review is from: The Black Seminole Legacy and North American Politics: 1693-1845 (Paperback)
The Black Seminole Legacy And North American Politics 1693-1845 by educator and historian Bruce Edward Twyman is a scholarly, accessible study of fugitive slaves who fled to Florida and formed alliances with Native peoples, mostly Seminoles. Known as "Black Seminoles", these independent-minded people had a profound effect on the politics of Spain, Britain, and the United States especially from 1693 to 1845. The influence that Black Seminoles had on United States presidents, and the particular contributions of the Black Seminole leader Abraham, are scrutinized in depth in this fascinating account that delves deep into an often-overlooked side of American history. Ideal for both academia and the non-specialist general reader with an interest in Native American Studies, The Black Seminole Legacy And North American Politics 1693-1845 is highly recommended reading.
