Part 6/8:
Transitioning from the natural beauty to the darker chapters of history, the host leads viewers to the site of the Battle of Lake Okeechobee. This battle, which took place on Christmas Day in 1837, was a pivotal moment during the Second Seminole War. It involved U.S. forces led by future President Zachary Taylor clashing with the Seminal Indians who were resisting removal from their homeland as part of a wider Indian Removal policy established by President Andrew Jackson.
