In this gripping narrative, the author unveils the harrowing saga of the Exiles of Florida, who were forcefully uprooted from their homeland and sold into slavery in Carolina and Georgia. Burdened by oppression, they sought sanctuary in Florida, where Spanish laws offered them freedom. However, in a time of fragile peace, the U.S. Army, acting on government orders, invaded Florida, resulting in the brutal murder of many free men and the re-enslavement of countless others. This tumultuous period, spanning seven years, was rife with betrayal, broken promises, and the tragic displacement of these Exiles alongside their allies, the Seminole Indians. Their quest for safety led them westward, where they encountered similar injustices, ultimately forcing them to seek asylum in Mexico. This poignant tale sheds light on a dark and often overlooked chapter in American history.
