Army & Navy Chronicle - 1835 to 1844 - Seminole War Guide: ANC-Seminole War Guide

Osceola: "if only half that has been said of this indomitable warrior be true, he is a most remarkable man." Are some of the amazing quotes.Micanopy says the Ft. Dade treaty with Gen. Jesup is the only treaty made with the Seminoles, and the Payne's Landing treaty was a fraud upon the tribe. Micanopy is younger and more athletic than previously reported. Micanopy has gone to Big Cypress to talk with Sam Jones, Powell, and Philip. As more information is reported in 1836.The Army and Navy Chronicle published from 1835 to 1842, and with a second, final run that went until 1844, was the Army Times of Antebellum Jacksonian expansion of the United States. During that time, the country became embroiled in a war that engaged half the Army in Florida, Volunteer Militias of several states, with support and cooperation with the Navy and Marine Corp, in an attempt to remove the Native Tribes from Florida during the Second Seminole War. The Chronicle is a documented eyewitness and primary source for the Florida War. This is an invaluable guide for any researcher into the war, of which there are not many comprehensive sources of information. Until now, this valuable source of information has been mainly left a mystery due to the incongruous nature of the publication. This book will give you a brief synopsis of the Seminole War stories and events in each issue of the Chronicle, with a few extra stories of interest. With the issue and page number of the volume, you can now look up the reference online from the internet sources that we did not have a few years ago. Even if you do not look up the original issues, I believe that you will be amazed by just reading about the headlines The Chronicle was an amazing publication of letters and reports from the field, and often multiple accounts from different eyewitnesses. There were some who said, "Let us leave this land to the Indians," what others said, "We are in a war of extermination " All views are covered. They are tainted by the biased of the times, which should be under consideration when reading this. But, I believe that the true moral character will still shine through. It is also a good study of the fight against slavery, as a growing Navy starts to prevent the passage of slave trade from Africa, and still hanging pirates in Mobile and Boston.The Battle of Okeechobee in 1837 where Lt.Col. Alexander Thompson of the 6th Infantry is killed, one of the highest-ranking casualties of the war. During the next seven years of the Chronicle's publication, it never stops talking about Thompson. Neither does it stop talking about the raid on Lt.Col. Harney's Dragoon troops at the Trading Post on the Caloosahatchee River. And, four years after the event, the Chronicle publishes a tale of one of the soldiers who survives as a captive of the Indians and escapes being almost roasted alive on the shore of Lake Okeechobee Colorful as well, are the descriptions of the Seminole and Miccosukee people. Osceola is described as having great command, and Halleck Tustenuggee is said to be a great speaker. An express rider meets a warrior in the woods and describes a friendly encounter, but that the Indian will not leave Florida for any reason.
