Bag om A Friend Of The Seminole (1911)

""A Friend of the Seminole"" is a novel written by George Ethelbert Walsh and published in 1911. The story is set in the early 1900s in the state of Florida, where the Seminole tribe is facing the threat of being forced off their land by the government. The main character, John Norton, is a white man who has lived among the Seminole for many years and has become a respected member of the tribe. He is torn between his loyalty to the Seminole and his duty to the government, which has offered him a job as an Indian agent. The novel explores themes of race, identity, and the clash between traditional and modern ways of life. It also features a love story between John and a young Seminole woman named Oola, as well as a subplot involving a corrupt government official who is determined to exploit the Seminole for his own gain. Overall, ""A Friend of the Seminole"" is a compelling and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that sheds light on a little-known chapter of American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
