Politics of Indian Removal

Michael D. Green is professor of history and Native American studies at Dartmouth College.

"This is not merely an analysis of the politics of removal, though it offers fresh insights into that much-discussed field. Rather, Green's focus is on the Creeks themselves. . . . Will become a standard reference for students of Creek history and Indian removal."—John R. Finger, Journal of Southern History "This is an excellent study of intratribal politics, and it unquestionably will become the standard reference for Creek politics during the early removal period."—R. David Edmunds, Georgia Historical Quarterly "Based on thorough documentary research, this book is a first-rate study, revealing not only much about Indians but also about whites and unsavory aspects of Jacksonian democracy."—J. Leitch Wright, Jr., American Historical Review
