A New Order of Things: Property, Power, and the Transformation

A New Order of Things: Property, Power, and the Transformation of the Creek Indians, 1733–1816 (Studies in North American Indian History)
- Used Book in Good Condition
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.
