This dissertation is a study of social and political change among the Oklahoma Seminoles during the time period 1836-1905. The subject of Seminole origins during 1700-1783 is also treated. Major topics include: military, diplomatic and bureaucratic contacts with the American government; changes in the Seminoles' natural and social environment; and acculturative changes in community organization and leadership. An orthography and glossary can be found in the appendix. The dissertation concludes with an analysis of major trends in Oklahoma Seminole history. Most of the data presented are from archival sources. The coverage of historical events is detailed and thorough.
