It tells the story of encroachment on the vast Native American territory in the Deep South, which gave rise to the Creek War, the bloodiest in American Indian history. This war involved not only white Americans and Native Americans, but also the British and the Spanish, and ultimately led to the Trail of Tears, in which the government forcibly removed the entire Creek people, as well as the neighboring Chickasaw, Choctaw, and Cherokee nations, from their homelands, leaving the way open for the conquest of the West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo other single Indian conflict had such a significant impact on the fate of the country. Cozzens' writing is wonderfully told and brilliantly detailed, making \"A Brutal Reckoning\" a sweeping history of a crucial period in the destruction of America's native tribes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 810g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 241 x 165 x 42 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781838959043\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Main\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Cozzens","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44324644487418,"sku":"9781838959043","price":18.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1688726223580_book.jpg?v=1688790995","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-brutal-reckoning-the-creek-indians-and-the-epic-war-for-the-american-south-9781838959043","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
