Summary
In 1830, Andrew Jackson became the first U.S. President to implement removal of Native Americans with the passage of the Indian Removal Act. Less than a decade later, tens of thousands of Native AmericansCherokee, Chickasaw, Muscogee-Creek, Seminole, and otherswere forcibly moved from their tribal lands to enable settlement by Caucasians of European origin.Encyclopedia of Indian Removal presents a realistic depiction of removal as a complicated process that was deeply affected by political, economic, and tribal factors, rather than the popular romanticized concept of American Indians being herded west by military troops through a trackless wilderness. This work is presented in two volumes. Volume 1 contains essays on subjects and people that are general in scope and arranged alphabetically by subject; Volume 2 is dedicated to primary documents regarding Indian removal and examines specific information about political debates, Indian responses to removal policy, and removals of individual tribes.
