This review is from: Florida's Seminole Wars1817-1858 (FL) (Making of America) (Paperback)
This title covers the history of all three of Florida's Seminole Wars in average detail. Illustrated with period artwork, the format is somewhat similar to an Osprey publication, without the color plates. Because the book touches upon all three of the wars, the detail given to each is sorely lacking. This is more of a cursory examination of the Seminole troubles, more suited to the neophyte than the buff. Mahon's Second Seminole War is still the best title for that conflict, and there are other titles that cover the First Seminole War (Heidler and Heidler's Old Hickory's War comes to mind).

If the book was not so pricey, it would be a good introduction to the Seminole issue. However, at it's current price tag one is better trying to find it used.
