During the Middle Ages, Europe’s nations began to forge new identities, moving away from the lost glory of the Roman Empire and developing their own ethnicities. This growth was often clumsy and uneven, as each nation struggled to replace Rome’s protection with their own strength. However, one constant remained—the Roman Catholic Church, which acted as the spiritual protector of Christian believers.
As the Middle Ages ended, though, a shift occurred. The Renaissance was a time when Europeans began to question what had once been deemed unquestionable. Through art, science, inventions, literature, and theology, the emerging nations sought answers that the Church was unwilling, or unable, to provide.
The Cherokee were the first Native American tribe to create a written language, constitution, and newspaper. Despite adapting to life in the U.S., they were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands during the Trail of Tears.
This book covers their struggles, decisions during the Civil War, and the leaders who brought both triumph and loss. From their forced relocation to the painful experiences in the residential school system, this account shares the highs and lows of Cherokee history, shining light on stories often left untold.
