William G. McLoughlin / Hardcover / Published 1993
Review: From Kirkus Reviews "An expert chronicle of the final triumphs and troubles of the Cherokee Nation before its integrity was destroyed by the US Congress in the 1880's--and the crowning achievement in the distinguished career of the late McLoughlin (History and Religion/Brown). Forced in the 1830's to abandon ancestral lands in the Deep South, the Cherokees suffered terribly on the Trail of Tears but arrived in their new home west of the Mississippi with their national identity largely intact. Led by the mixed-blood John Ross, they encountered hostility from Cherokees already established in the area, and a bloody factional struggle ensued that was settled only by treaty in 1846."

William G. McLoughlin / Paperback / Published 1994
Review: Booknews, Inc. "In this work completed just before his death, McLoughlin (history emeritus, Brown U.) traces the social, cultural, and political history of the Cherokee Nation during the 40-year period after its members were forcibly removed from the southern Appalachians and resettled in what is now Oklahoma. He not only explains how the Cherokees rebuilt their lives and society, but also recounts their fight to govern themselves as a separate nation within the borders of the US."

John A. Andrew / Hardcover / Published 1992
Review: Booknews, Inc. "An intellectual and spiritual heir to the founding fathers and a forebear of American Victorianism, Evarts (1781-1831) is best remembered today as the stalwart opponent of Andrew Jackson's Indian policies--specifically the removal of Cherokees from the Southeast. This thorough study examines his life and his dream of a government based on Christian principles, drawing on Evarts's personal and family papers, religious periodicals, records of missionary and benevolent organizations, and government documents. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or."

Stanley Hoig / Paperback / Published 1996
From Horn Book: "Hoig expands the definition of the rail of tearsto include the many paths followed by Native Americans forced from their homelands, but his account focuses on the infamous forced removal of the Cherokee to Indian Territory from 1838 to 1839. Original sources, including journals of U.S. Army Lieutenant Joseph Harris and missionary Daniel Butrich, add immediacy. Additional maps would have been helpful.
