| Publisher Description: A fascinating account of the settlement of Tennessee. King George had prohibited expansion but with the American war of independence and new treaties formed with the Cherokee and Iroquois native Americans. This is the story of the expansion of settlers and changed the land from wild frontier to cultivated plantation. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. |
