John Ehle
A sixth-generation North Carolinian, highly-acclaimed author John Ehle grew up on former Cherokee hunting grounds. His experience as an accomplished novelist, combined with his extensive, meticulous research, culminates in this moving tragedy rich with historical detail.
The Cherokee are a proud, ancient civilization. For hundreds of years they believed themselves to be the "Principle People" residing at the center of the earth. But by the 18th century, some of their leaders believed it was necessary to adapt to European ways in order to survive. Those chiefs sealed the fate of their tribes in 1875 when they signed a treaty relinquishing their land east of the Mississippi in return for promises of wealth and better land. The U.S. government used the treaty to justify the eviction of the Cherokee nation in an exodus that the Cherokee will forever remember as the "trail where they cried". John McDonough narrates with thoughtful gravity. The heroism and nobility of the Cherokee shine through this intricate story of American politics, ambition, and greed.

While I enjoyed the author's writing, I found the narrator's frequent swallowing was unbearable at normal speed. I had to listen to most of the audiobook at 1.7X speed to make it tolerable.
Very Readable History of the Cherokee Nation

I've never like Georgia and now I am resolved to never spend a dime of my money in that state! Also revealing was the insight into Andrew Jackson. The crimes against these people are nothing short of horrific.
It's also eye opening that the Cherokee had slaves and plantations and college educated tribal WELL before the infamous Trail of Tears.
AMAZING, eye opening!!!

If you could sum up Trail of Tears in three words, what would they be?
Tragically trying AmericanizeWhat didn’t you like about John McDonough’s performance?
NoneWas this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
YesAny additional comments?
The performance of Audible was horrible and left me Frustrated by having to start it all over again every time it stopped. It stopped every 5-10 minutes, sometimes more often. I got Audible because I have no time to read and wanted to be able to listen while I work. This makes it almost impossible.Superb oration
