But the Seminole chiefs held their own council: they decided, with a loyalty seldom extended from one race to another, to defend their ideals and their land. The Seven-year war that resulted was, in fact, an American defense of the institution of slavery." from the jacket flap. Price clipped, else, Pristine, no wear.
