From 1835 to 1842 the United States was engaged in the longest and costliest of all American Indian Wars in history - the Second Seminole War. The Second Seminole War pitted one of the bravest and most valiant of all Native American Tribes - the Seminoles - against the United States government, which was rapidly expanding into Florida. At the time, Florida was a long way from being the retirement and vacation hotspot that it is today, but was instead more like the "wild west" of the late nineteenth century as American settlers and Seminoles fought each other over prime farmland. Florida's history goes back well before the American Revolutionary War; the Spanish built the city of Saint Augustine on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in the sixteenth century, which makes it the oldest city in the United States. After the United States acquired Florida from Spain in the early nineteenth century, the territory was inundated a by an influx of American settlers who clashed with the Seminoles, which eventually led to one of the greatest Indian wars in American history. Open the pages of this book and you will quickly find yourself in the middle of an epic war that was carried out by some incredible personalities. Ride with General Zachary Taylor as he chases the Seminoles into the Everglades and sit with Chief Osceola as he tells his people great Native American tales in order to inspire them in battle. Upon reading this book you will find that the Second Seminole War was not only an example of an epic Native American war, as it spanned the entire territory and took place for nearly seven years, but it was also a national tragedy. Truly the Second Seminole War played in integral role in Native American History in early nineteenth century America in terms of Indian removal, but has since become an important part of every American's history.

Dusty road shoot outs, roaming buffalo, bar brawls, gold, tragedy and genocide, damsels in distress, and cowboys riding off into the sunset—the taming of the Western frontier is one of the most colorful and fascinating periods of American history. In this beautifully illustrated and comprehensive book, Bruce Wexler brings the ruggedness of the old American West to life. The Wild West separates fact from the fiction, exposing the myths of the old West, and assesses its cultural impact on the indigenous people, American life, and the American dream—both past and present.

A state visit to China during the first year in office is unprecedented for a U.S. president, but Barack Obama has made it. Moreover, the fact that President Obama spent four days and three nights of his seven-day visit to four Asian nations in Beijing and Shanghai has demonstrated the importance his administration attaches to China and to Sino-U.S. relations in its global strategy. Six other U.S. presidents (Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, and Bush Jr.) visited China during their terms in office, but none went within the first year, and none went having accepted more than ten million dollars in campaign funds from their host. The meeting between the American President, President Hu, and Jet How Chung precipitated the violent reaction of the commander-in-chief that took place on Air Force One as it sat on the tarmac in Beijing, November 2009. This is a work of fiction, however, the facts and figures quoted are historically accurate. Most statistical data came from the Congressional Record or from accredited news sources. Some of the figures who appear, however, do so under their own names.
