Author Description

20 May 1767 Grey Eyes, a Seminole Indian, and some 25 Indian boys drive a herd of Spanish cattle from Colerain Georgia to New Smyrna, a distance of 106 miles. This great cattle drive formed the basis for Old Kings Road built by the British into Florida, the Minorcan settlers, a terrible Florida war, and a black slave uprising. The little known story of the Black Seminoles is told here along with the events that shaped Florida along Old Kings road.
