Abstract

Without question this memoir by a mixedblood Creek dignitary who fought with Indian units attached to the armies of the Confederacy is the most informative and carefully edited account of the Civil War in Indian Territory after 1862. But it is more than that, for it provides a lucid and candid commentary on important aspects of Creek history from forced removal in the early national period to formal tribal dissolution in 1906.
