Description

Claudio Saunt vividly depicts a dramatic transformation in the eighteenth century that overturned the world of the powerful and numerous Creek Indians and forever changed the Deep South. As the Creeks amassed a fortune in cattle and slaves| new property fostered a new possessiveness| and government by coercion bred confrontation. A New Order of Things is the first book to chronicle this decisive transformation in America’s early history| a transformation that left deep divisions between the wealthy and poor| powerful and powerless.
