Will become a standard reference for students of Creek history and Indian removal."—John R. Finger, <i>Journal of Southern History</i>

"This is an excellent study of intratribal politics, and it unquestionably will become the standard reference for Creek politics during the early removal period."—R. David Edmunds, <i>Georgia Historical Quarterly</i>

"Based on thorough documentary research, this book is a first-rate study, revealing not only much about Indians but also about whites and unsavory aspects of Jacksonian democracy."—J. Leitch Wright, Jr., <i>American Historical Review</i>
