Trail of Tears

A Captivating Guide to the Forced Removals of Cherokee, Muscogee Creek, Seminole, Chickasaw, and Choctaw Nations

De: Captivating History

Narrado por: Duke Holm

Explore the cruel history of the Trail of Tears.

One of the darkest and cruelest chapters in the history of the United States occurred when the nation’s young government decided to remove the native peoples from their lands in the name of profit.

Having helped settlers for hundreds of years, five Native American tribes found it increasingly more difficult to relate to, and trust, the country that had once acted as their allies. The native peoples had fought alongside the Americans to gain freedom from England, the nation that the colonists deemed oppressive and unfair. The native peoples acted as benefactors and teachers to help the colonists gain an advantage against an army that was far superior to the small forces that the colonists could muster. The new country owed a lot of its existence to the native peoples, yet the settlers, who were of European descent, did not see it that way.

The following topics will be covered in this audiobook:

very informative

loved it! I've gained a whole new understanding of the struggle forced on Native Americans.

Good historical fiction

A very sad story, but tells you the true story behind the Cherokee's removal. My one regret is that the book did not spend more time on what happened on the Trail Of Tears and less on the events that led up to it.I definitely recommended it to anyone!

I learn ed a lot about the Forced Removals.

I thought it would have had a little more history about the forced removals of cherokee, muscogee creek, seminole, chickasaw, and choctaw nations on the Cherokee. I learned a lot indeed about the tribes. I still need a more detailed history to satisfy my interest.

The book shows great history.

Somewhere in Tennessee I read this line "The Start of the Trail of Tears." I made mind that I will had to read this book to find the history of the United States and the Native Americans. Sad!

For all the losses

There are things that people will never know. Everything that was outlined in the book will not be believed .
