Work Description
Osceola, Patriot And Warrior describes the struggle of Seminole chief and warrior Osceola to save his people from being forced off their land in Florida by the United States government.
In the 1830s, the United States government wants the Seminole Indians of Florida to abandon their homes to move to the Arkansas Territory. Unwilling to give up their land, Osceola leads the Seminoles in defending their homes and their freedom.
The name “Seminole” translates to free people and evolved from the Spanish word, “cimmarónes”, which means wild or untamed. It is an appropriate name for this amalgamation of people who shared a common desire to be free of domination.
