Biographie:
Chris Kimball has always been interested in Florida history and Seminole Indians due to growing up in Florida and his mother working as a cultural anthropologist, interested in Native people. After earning a degree in Public Administration from UCF, Chris served as a Sergeant in the US Army, in the Adjutant General Corp, where he learned to navigate the various systems of administration and paperwork that the Army is famous for, which prove invaluable for researching Seminole War History. Chris has also been active in historical living history presentations of the Seminole War time since college and recreating Seminole clothing from the Seminole war era, and writing articles, web pages, and newsletters. He has assisted with museum exhibits and made reproductions of outfits for museums. This timeline book was started in the mid-1990's when Chris was in downtown Orlando and would go to the library to research the Seminole War. Although it was one of the best libraries in Florida for research at the time, he found that there was not enough information available for a consistent timeline of battles of the era to use for programs and reenactments. So, he decided to start his own, which he knew would become available to everyone else. He has never stopped researching the Florida Seminole wars and related events!
