Description



Book Synopsis



The Cherokee were the first Native American tribe to develop a syllabic written language.

They were also the first Native American tribe to have a written constitution and the first Native American tribe to have a newspaper. And the list goes on and on. The Cherokee is one of the most fascinating Indigenous tribes in the United States of American. The Cherokee managed to assimilate themselves within the US. And yet, they were sent far across the country, exiled from their ancestral homelands.

What happened on their journey during the Trail of Tears? What side did they pick when the Civil War exploded onto the scene? Who led them to victory and brutal, brutal defeat? The truth is inside of these pages.

Their story is one of the harshest in US history. The Cherokee suffered hardships practically from the moment they were born to the moment they died. From the Trail of Tears to the residential school system, their story is fraught with complications.

In this new, exposing, and honest retelling of the Cherokee, you will read about the highs and lows of the Cherokee tribe, including the stories and moments that are often pushed under the rug.

Here's a taste of what you will discover along the way:

  • The life of the Cherokee before the Europeans ever set foot on the shores of the United States
  • In-depth research on the many treaties drawn between the Europeans and the Cherokee
  • Details about President Jackson's Trail of Tears and those who died along the way
  • The ways the Cherokee assimilated in the United States
  • The truth about life as a Cherokee on the reservation
  • Revelations about residential schools
  • The Cherokee police force
  • The first female principal chief of the Cherokee
  • And much more!
