Synopsis

This book compiles materials from the 23rd of May, 1825 executive department of Georgia, concerning the acquisition of Creek territory. It begins with a message from the governor, who decries the opposition within the federal government to the acquisition of the land. The ongoing negotiations with the Creek, the controversies over land ownership, fraud, and the internal politics of the Creek Nation are discussed at length through correspondence and official documents. This book offers an in-depth look at Native American policy in the early 19th century in the United States, as well as the internal politics of the Creek Nation at a pivotal moment in their history.
