Florida Atlantic University journalism students go back in time and publish a special edition of the Atlantic Sun student newspaper without using computers. They write stories on manual typewriters and copy edit them in pencil. They shoot with film cameras and develop and print their own photographs. They lay it all out with pica poles and proportion wheels. They experience what it was like 20 years ago.

In the 1800s, a total of three wars were fought by the U.S. military against the Seminoles. These campaigns were the longest, costliest, and bloodiest of all the Indian wars.
