If anyone here is into the history of the Second Seminole War, the Seminole Indians, or Black Seminoles, you ought to check out this new documentary Web site. It has 300+ archival images:

While the site focuses on the 19th-century odyssey of John Horse and the Black Seminoles, it includes a complete narrative of the Second Seminole War with with about 150 images, including cartoons, engravings, archival photos, rare maps, and a lot of other stuff. There's information on Andrew Jackson, Thomas Sydney Jesup, Zachary Taylor, Ethan Allen Hitchcock and other officers, along with the African and Seminole interactions.
