Swamp Panther is the story of a runaway slave's struggle to remain free by
living among the Seminole Indian tribes of Florida. After escaping from a
plantation in Georgia and enduring many hardships on his solitary journey
south, Duncan awakens one morning to find himself surrounded by Indians who
meet in council before deciding to adopt him. He becomes Coo-Wah-Chobee [big
cat] and one of numerous black people who joined the Seminole Nation in their
long struggle with the United States Government. This book dramatizes the
unique history of slaves, tribes, and families united against slavery and
soldiers. |
