Minnie Moore-Willson writes in defence of the few hundred Seminoles who refused removal and remained in Florida’s swamps. She recounts the origin of the troubles, the removal campaigns, the Dade massacre, the broken treaties and the story of Osceola, then describes the camps, crops and customs of the Everglades Seminoles and adds a glossary of their language.
