Unworthy Republic : The Dispossession of Native Americans and the Road to Indian Territory Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In May 1830, the United States launched an unprecedented campaign to expel 80,000 Native Americans from their eastern homelands to territories west of the Mississippi River.

In a firestorm of fraud and violence, thousands of Native Americans lost their lives, and thousands more lost their farms and possessions.

The operation soon devolved into an unofficial policy of extermination, enabled by US officials, southern planters, and northern speculators.

Hailed for its searing insight, Unworthy Republic transforms our understanding of this pivotal period in American history.
