Early History Of The Creek Indians And Their Neighbors (1922)

""Early History of the Creek Indians and Their Neighbors"" is a book written by John Reed Swanton and published in 1922. The book provides a comprehensive history of the Creek Indians, one of the largest Native American tribes in the southeastern United States, and their interactions with neighboring tribes and European settlers. Swanton delves into the origins of the Creek people, their language and culture, and their political and social organization. He also explores the Creek Wars, a series of conflicts between the Creek and European settlers in the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as the tribe's eventual removal from their ancestral lands to Indian Territory in the 1830s. The book draws on a variety of primary sources, including early colonial records, letters, and journals, as well as interviews with Creek elders and other Native American informants. Swanton's writing is detailed and scholarly, but also accessible to general readers interested in Native American history. Overall, ""Early History of the Creek Indians and Their Neighbors"" is an important work of scholarship that sheds light on the complex history of one of the most significant Native American tribes in the southeastern United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
