On the sixth day, halfway to their destination, they were attacked by Seminole Indians. By four o'clock in the afternoon, only three wounded soldiers survived what came to be known as the Dade Massacre. Only two of those men managed to struggle fifty miles back to Fort Brooke. One of them--wounded in the shoulder and hip, a bullet in one lung--was Private Ransom Clark. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the story of great duplicity, not on the part of Seminole Indians, but of the politicians and officers who sent the men of Dade's command to their death. The Dade Massacre was the pretext the U.S. government needed to begin the Second Seminole War, the longest and most expensive Indian war in American history. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn 1839 Ransom Clark wrote a brief account of his ordeal, entitled \u003ci\u003eThe Surprising Adventures of Ransom Clark, Among the Indians in Florida\u003c\/i\u003e. Although he promised to later supply an entire account, he didn't live long enough to do so, succumbing to his grave wounds. In \u003ci\u003eNobody's Hero\u003c\/i\u003e, Frank Laumer completes Clark's story. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 15, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47423865618681,"sku":"9781683340317","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/V2hJdFRwSk1zM3NvNVQ3Rzh4V2dXUT09.webp?v=1771306406","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/nobodys-hero-paperback-5","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
