Creek
Country: The Creek Indians and Their World
by Robbie Ethridge
Book Description: Reconstructing the human and natural environment
of the Creek Indians in frontier Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee,
Robbie Ethridge sheds new light on a time of wrenching transition. Creek
Country presents a compelling portrait of a culture in crisis, of its resiliency
in the face of profound change, and of the forces that pushed it into decisive,
destructive conflict.
Ethridge begins with the arrival of U.S. Indian Agent Benjamin Hawkins,
whose tenure among the Creeks coincided with a period of increased federal
intervention in tribal affairs, growing tension between Indians and non-Indians,
and pronounced strife within the tribe. In a detailed description of Creek
town life, the author reveals how social structures were stretched to accommodate
increased engagement with whites and blacks. The Creek economy, long linked
to the outside world through the deerskin trade, had begun to fail. Ethridge
details the Creeks' efforts to diversify their economy, especially through
experimental farming and ranching, and the ecological crisis that ensued.
Disputes within the tribe culminated in the Red Stick War, a civil war
among Creeks that quickly spilled over into conflict between Indians and
white settlers and was ultimately used by U.S. authorities to justify their
policy of Indian removal.

Sacred
Revolt
by Joel W. Martin
Book Description: The Muskogees' Struggle for a New World
"In Sacred Revolt Joel Martin places the 1813-1814 revolt of the people
who were called 'Creek Indians' in the context of world history while forsaking
nothing of the texture of their own culture. With a deft use of multiple
perspectives, he has rewritten a chapter in the history of the Old South.
His book will do much to freshen stale ways of thinking about a valiant
people."
