A review by flexmentallo
Unworthy Republic: The Dispossession of Native Americans and the Road to Indian Territory by Claudio Saunt

challenging dark informative medium-paced

4.5

A thorough, horrifying look at the brutality behind the Trail of Tears. What political forces pushed for it? What was the reality of American motivation? This book, while occasionally repetitive, is incredibly detailed and empathetic, while remaining a powerful historical document.
