A Brutal Reckoning: The Creek Indians And The Epic War For The American South

'Cozzens is a master storyteller' The Times

'Extremely well researched' Times Literary Supplement

From the devastating invasion by Spanish conquistadors in the sixteenth century to the relentless pressure from white settlers 150 years later, A Brutal Reckoning tells the story of encroachment on the vast Native American territory in the Deep South, which gave rise to the Creek War, the bloodiest in American Indian history, and propelled Andrew Jackson into national prominence, as he led the US Army in a ruthless campaign.

It was a war that involved not only white Americans and Native Americans but also the British and the Spanish, and ultimately led to the Trail of Tears, in which the government forcibly removed the entire Creek people, as well as the neighbouring Chickasaw, Choctaw and Cherokee nations, from their homelands, leaving the way open for the conquest of the West. No other single Indian conflict had such a significant impact on the fate of the country.

Wonderfully told and brilliantly detailed, A Brutal Reckoning is a sweeping history of a crucial period in the destruction of America's native tribes.

'Cozzens recounts this tale with his customary equanimity, never attempting to embroider that which is already horrifying... Sadly, this is a book that many Americans won't want to read. It will probably be banned from some schools. Cozzens nevertheless deserves praise for having the courage, in today's climate, to write it.' - The Times

'A penetrating and fast-paced account...The story of the Creek War is a sorry one, but Cozzens recounts it both with fairness and with a richness of color and detail... Cozzens writes with sensitivity about the political and cultural vise in which the Creeks were crushed.' - Wall Street Journal

'As has come to be expected from Cozzens's work, A Brutal Reckoning masterfully blends important cultural and biographical details with expressive and engaging military history.' - Washington Post

Finally, a lotion that doesn't feel like a layer of grease
Size: 24 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve always hated using lotion because of that sticky, slippery feeling, but this Gold Bond Men's Essentials is different. It actually absorbs in about 15 seconds as advertised and leaves my skin feeling smooth but totally dry to the touch. The Spring Water/Sandalwood scent is clean and masculine without being overpowering or smelling like a "perfume". Perfect for daily use after a shower. This hand cream soaked in just like the packaging says in less than 15 seconds. I could feel the difference in my cracked cuticles almost immediately. HIghly recommend.

Works great in the winter!
Size: 24 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This body lotion really saved me this winter - easy to use pump, easy to apply post-shower and absorbs well while providing a good barrier to the winter weather. This has a clean scent that subsides overtime unlike many other brands that soak you scent but not the elements.

Must Have Beauty Product
This one of my favorite and must have beauty products. Works so quickly for chapped lips and just keeping my lips soft every day. The formula isn’t sticky at all and you can really feel how hydrating and nourishing it is
