A New Order of Things: Property, Power, and the Transformation of the Creek Indians, 1733-1816 Paperback - 1999

by Claudio Saunt


From the publisher

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.

First line

In early summer 1735, nearly fifty Native Americans from the Chattahoochee River, which now separates the states of Georgia and Alabama, set out for a bluff near the mouth of the Savannah River where newcomers had established an outpost two years earlier.
