''Through Swamp and Glade: A Tale of the Seminole War'' is a historical fiction novel written by Kirk Munroe and first published in 1896. The book is set during the Second Seminole War, which took place in Florida between 1835 and 1842. The story follows the adventures of a young man named Ralph Osceola, who is half-Seminole and half-white. Ralph is torn between his loyalty to his Seminole tribe and his love for his white friends, who are fighting against the Seminoles in the war. Ralph’s journey takes him through the treacherous swamps and forests of Florida, where he must navigate dangerous terrain and avoid enemy soldiers. The novel provides a vivid and accurate portrayal of the Seminole War, including the tactics used by both sides and the impact of the conflict on the Seminole people. Munroe’s writing is engaging and immersive, and the novel is a thrilling adventure story as well as a valuable historical document. ''Through Swamp and Glade'' is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, Native American culture, or exciting tales of adventure and survival.''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
