Synopsis

This book examines the controversial 1825 treaty between the United States and the Creek Nation, which ceded Creek lands in Georgia to the United States. The author analyzes the negotiations leading up to the treaty, including the role of U.S. officials and Creek leaders, and explores the treaty's impact on the Creek Nation. The book also discusses the historical context of the treaty, including the history of U.S.-Creek relations and the broader context of Indian removal during this period. The author argues that the treaty was the result of a complex interplay of political, economic, and social factors, and that it had a profound impact on the Creek Nation, ultimately contributing to their forced removal from their ancestral lands.
