This one's a short little non-fiction book, subtitled "The Cherokees and the Trail of Tears." That's about the size of it. The book gives a short description of the Cherokee nation and how they adapted to the arrival of the Europeans. It also briefly tells the tale of how the descendants of those Europeans totally screwed the Cherokees and forced them to move away from their homeland under truly awful conditions. As I was reading the book, it made me wish that the British had won the Revolutionary War. Anyway, I would only rate this as waiting room material, even though this is a part of American history that should be told. I suppose it's better than nothing. --J. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

Jorden var rik i cherokesernas vackra land vid Appalacher-bergen. Det fanns rikligt med vilt, fisk och frukt och cherokeserna var inte bara jägare utan också åkerbrukare. Då de vita började komma till deras land, lärde sig cherokeserna att använda deras redskap och att bygga blockhus. Många av dem blev rika och välbärgade.
Olyckligtvis fann man guld i deras jord. Efter hand blev cherokeserna fråntagna sina rättigheter och resterna av sitt land. Slutligen blev de alla deporterade till Arkansas. Under vägen dog många.
Endast namnen finns kvar är en spännande och historisk korrekt berättelse om cherokeserna från deras första möte med den vite mannen till den slutliga förvisningen från deras jaktmarker.
