Overview
The Scott Battle of 1817 was a dramatic victory by Native American forces and the U.S. Army's first defeat of the Seminole Wars. The engagement took place on the upper Apalachicola River in North Florida. The outcome of the battle led the administration of President James Monroe to order Maj. Gen. Andrew Jackson's 1818 invasion of Spanish Florida and soon led to the transfer of the colony from Spain to the United States.
