Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -One man's remarkable account of nation-building, Native diplomacy, and the making of the early American South.The Reminiscences of George Strother Gaines: Pioneer and Statesman of Early Alabama and Mississippi, 1805-1843 offers one of the most vivid, irreplaceable firsthand accounts of the American Southeast during its most transformative decades. Edited and expertly contextualized by historian James P. Pate, this volume gathers Gaines's dictated memoirs, rare letters, early newspaper publications, oral-history interviews, and extensive editorial notes to illuminate a world on the cusp of monumental change. George Strother Gaines was no ordinary frontier figure. Trusted by U.S. officials and Choctaw leaders alike, he played central roles as federal factor at the Choctaw Trading House, a key intermediary during treaty negotiations, a primary organizer of the first Choctaw removal, a banker and state senator in newly formed Alabama, and later a driving force behind the Mobile & Ohio Railroad. His reminiscences reveal intimate knowledge of the region's political development, frontier economy, Native diplomacy, and daily life. They are written in a strikingly elegant 'Addisonian' style praised even in his own lifetime. This edition's special features--including detailed maps, illustrations, genealogical material, and a robust scholarly introduction--make it the most comprehensive and authoritative presentation of Gaines's writings ever published. It not only preserves his voice but situates him within the broader historical forces reshaping the Gulf South and Native nations in the nineteenth century. Ideal readers include: - Historians of Alabama, Mississippi, and the early American South - Scholars of Native American and Choctaw/Chickasaw history - Readers of frontier, antebellum, or political history - Genealogists and local-history enthusiasts - Anyone seeking an engaging, elegantly written window into the early Southeast This is a foundational text for understanding the region's past--and a compelling story told by one of its most influential witnesses. 244 pp. Englisch.…
