Resistance

Plantation slaves were defecting, but John Horse's closest followers had not surrendered. These "Seminole Negroes" formed the core of the black resistance, and they remained at large, living on roots and berries, some maintaining whole families in the swamps where they held fast to a perilous freedom. What would happen to them now that John Horse and the leading militants were in prison? And what would happen to John Horse? With no guerilla force behind him, how could he secure his own future, let alone the welfare of his followers?

What could he do? Against all odds, he dreamed of the impossible. Then he acheived it.
