In the wilds of Florida: a tale of warfare and hunting

About this book

Set in Florida’s wild country, William Henry Giles Kingston’s children’s adventure is a tale of hunting and warfare, written for young readers drawn to frontier action. The title puts the pursuit of game beside the threat of conflict, making the landscape part of the danger rather than mere scenery. It promises a brisk adventure, though the available information gives little basis for more detail about its characters or events.
