From The Publisher. This Significant Contribution To Cherokee Studies Examines The Tribe{u2019}s Life During The Eighteenth Century, Up To The Removal. By Revealing Town Loyalties And Regional Alliances, Tyler Boulware Uncovers A Persistent Identification Hierarchy Among The Colonial Cherokee. Boulware Aims To Fill The Gap In Cherokee Historical Studies By Addressing Two Significant Aspects Of Cherokee Identity: Town And Region. Though Other Factors Mattered, These Were Arguably The Most Recognizable Markers By Which Cherokee Peoples Structured Group Identity And Influenced Their Interactions With Outside Groups During The Colonial Era. This Volume Focuses On The Understudied Importance Of Social And Political Ties That Gradually Connected Villages And Regions And Slowly Weakened The Localism That Dominated In Earlier Decades. It Highlights The Importance Of Borderland Interactions To Cherokee Political Behavior And Provides A Nuanced Investigation Of The Issue Of Native American Identity, Bringing Geographic Relevance And Distinctions To The Topic.
