Download or read book Indian War Sites written by Steve Rajtar and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Seminole Wars to the Little Big Horn, the history of America’s native peoples and their contacts with those seeking to settle or claim a new land has often been marked by violence. The sites of these conflicts, unlike many sites related to the American Revolution and the War Between the States, are often difficult to locate, and information on these battles is frequently sketchy or unclear. This reference work provides essential information on these sites. The arrangement is by state, with sections for Canada and Mexico. Each entry has information about how to find the site, tours, museums, and resources for further study. In addition, there is a chronological list of battles and other encounters between Indians and non–Indians, including dates, location in the text, and the larger conflict of which each battle was a part. There is an index of battle locations and an index of prominent people involved. The bibliography and site listings are cross-referenced for further research.
Book Synopsis Metal Detecting Seminole Indian War Sites by : James M. Gray
Download or read book Metal Detecting Seminole Indian War Sites written by James M. Gray and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminole Indian War Sites were manned by both military and civilians during the three Seminole Indian Wars in the early 1800's and some were later used as camp and fortification sites during the War Between the States; by both Confederate and Union soldiers and are a part of that period of history with many now protected and preserved by civilian and state authorities as well. I was with such sites that James Gray began his years of research in Florida, not only locating many unknown sites, but also documenting and recording many of them with the office of the Division of Archives and History in the State of Florida. Being recognized by Florida state officials allowed the Florida Historical Research Foundation to approach private property owners about suspected fortification sites that might lie on their land. As a result many lost sites were rediscovered, completely mapped and state authorized records filed revealing their location and existence; preserving some for future state parks.

Book excerpt: What is a nice girl like Jenna Ogden doing in love with handsome, provocatively mysterious Ron Sundy, whose mother is a buffalo who has not yet been born? Confused by Ron's beliefs and his mystic abilities to heal and to "mind travel," Jenna must examine her own faith as she wrestles with Ron's claim that his life's mission is to save the world from evil. Yet, she cannot help being drawn to the compelling Ron Sundy. Ron leads his religion, a mix of Indian lore, myth, and Christianity. He sees himself as the son of White Buffalo, whose rebirth will signal the end of the earth. His cousin, Erika, wants to dispose of Ron, and enthrone herself as spiritual leader of their tribe. Her interference disturbs Jenna, as Erika attempts to recruit Jenna into her dark schemes. Jenna never dreamed she'd fall in love. She was waiting for Connor Young to return from his two-year Mormon mission and marry her. Impressions of Innocence is the story of love's pain and triumph as Jenna grows from a sheltered, naive Mormon girl to a mature and wise woman. Mormons, myths, and mystery combine in this story of love, deception, and intrigue.

Book Synopsis The Archaeology of French and Indian War Frontier Forts by : Lawrence E. Babits
Download or read book The Archaeology of French and Indian War Frontier Forts written by Lawrence E. Babits and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Ticonderoga, the allegedly impenetrable star fort at the southern end of Lake Champlain, is famous for its role in the French and Indian War. But many other one-of-a-kind forts were instrumental in staking out the early American colonial frontier. On the 250th anniversary of this often-overlooked conflict, this volume musters an impressive range of scholars who tackle the lesser-known but nonetheless historically significant sites from barracks to bastions. Civilian, provincial, or imperial, the fortifications covered in this book range from South Carolina's Fort Prince George to Fort Frontenac in Ontario and to Fort de Chartres in Illinois. These forts were built during the first serious arms race on the continent, as Europeans and colonists struggled to control the lucrative fur trade routes of the northern boundary. The contributors to this volume reveal how the French and British adapted their fortification techniques to the special needs of the North American frontier. By exploring the unique structures that guarded the borderlands, this book reveals much about the underlying economies and dynamics of the broader conflict that defined a critical period of the American experience.
Book Synopsis Seminole Indian War Fort and Camp Locations - from Florida Survey Records - Volume 2 by : Stewart Dunaway
Download or read book Seminole Indian War Fort and Camp Locations - from Florida Survey Records - Volume 2 written by Stewart Dunaway and published by Lulu.com.

It is a combination of MISSED forts (a few) from earlier Central Florida research - as well as NEW locations throughout the State. This completes ALL sites found in the entire State. This book contains Indian Villages, forts, and battle sites (if noted by the surveyor) as found in the Survey Plats from the 1830s-1850s era. In addition, this book will show the original survey drawings, and includes a modern map showing the location PER the survey records. Will this be exact?

Starting with good primary records is so important.

Book Synopsis Journal of the Indian Wars by : Michael Hughes
Download or read book Journal of the Indian Wars written by Michael Hughes and published by Savas Publishing. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journal of the Indian Wars, or JIW was a quarterly publication on the study of the American Indian Wars. Before JIW, no periodical dedicated exclusively to this fascinating topic was available. JIW's focus was on warfare in the United States, Canada, and the Spanish borderlands from 1492 to 1890. Published articles also include personalities, policy, and military technologies. JIW was designed to satisfy both professional and lay readers with original articles of lasting value and a variety of columns of interest, plus book reviews, all enhanced with maps and illustrations. JIW's lengthy essays of substance are presented in a fresh and entertaining manner. Most readers of the Civil War and Indian War history know that a small force of Indians participated in the Battle of Pea Ridge; John Pope was banished to Minnesota after his disastorous performance at Second Bull Run to face the rebellious Sioux; Stand Watie and Ely Parker rose to high rank in the Confederate and Union armies, respectively; and a region labeled simply "Indian Territory" existed somewhere in the Trans-Mississippi Theater. All true. Yet the situation of American Indians during the Civil War period was much more complex, their fate more devastating and far-reaching than most students appreciate. Each of the articles in this issue underscore this point. In this edition: Foreword Firm but Fair: The Minnesota Volunteers and the Coming of the Dakota War of 1862 The Most Terrible Stories: The 1862 Dakota Conflict in White Imagination Chiefs by Commission: Stand Watie and Ely Parker Flowing with Blood and Whiskey: Stand Watie and the Battles of First and Second Cabin Creek Nations Asunder: Western American Indian Experiences During the Civil War, 1861-1865, Part I Interview: A Conversation with Battlefield Interpreter Doug Keller Features: Wisconsin's 1832 Black Hawk Trail The Indian Wars: Organizational, Tribal, and Museum News Thomas Online: Daughters of the Lance: Native American Women Warriors Book Reviews Index
