Book Synopsis Journey to the West by : Sheri Marie Shuck-Hall
Download or read book Journey to the West written by Sheri Marie Shuck-Hall and published by Civilization of the American Indian Series. This book was released on 2008 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Europeans battled for control over North America in the eighteenth century, American Indians were caught in the cross fire. Two such peoples, the Alabamas and Coushattas, made the difficult decision to migrate from their ancestral lands and thereby preserve their world on their own terms. In this book, Sheri Marie Shuck-Hall traces the gradual movement of the Alabamas and Coushattas from their origins in the Southeast to their nineteenth-century settlement in East Texas, exploring their motivations for migrating west and revealing how their shared experience affected their identity. The first book to examine these peoples over such an extensive period, Journey to the West tells how they built and maintained their sovereignty despite five hundred years of trauma and change. Blending oral tradition, archaeological data, and archival sources, Shuck-Hall shows how they joined forces in the seventeenth century after their first contact with Europeans, then used trade and diplomatic relations to ally themselves with these newcomers and with larger Indian groups-including the Creeks, Caddos, and Western Cherokees-to ensure their continuing independence. In relating how the Alabamas and Coushattas determined their own future through careful reflection and forceful action, this book provides much-needed information on these overlooked peoples and places southeastern Indians within the larger narratives of southern and American history. It shows how diaspora and migration shaped their worldview and identity, reflecting similar stories of survival in other times and places.

Download or read book Kalita's People written by Aline Rothe and published by . This book was released on 2022-08-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kalita's People, a History of the Alabama-Coushatta Indians of Texas, is the first complete history between the covers of one book of the last distinct Indian tribe in Texas, once known for its numerous diverse tribes of aborigines. Following an introduction in tribute to the tribe by former State Senator, Clem Fain, first honorary white chief of the Alabama-Coushatta Indians, the colorful story of these Indians is traced through four hundred and twenty-two years, from the time they were first recorded in history in 1541 during the siege by Hernando De Soto of their province in the territory now known as the State of Alabama, named for the valiant tribe bravely resisting the invasion of their homeland by Spanish troops. The Alabama with the Mobile Indians, fought Hernando De Soto's army in one of the largest Indian battles that ever occurred in the area now known as the United States. The battle is vividly described in this book. In addition to the history of the tribe, there is much other interesting information in the book: legends and customs of the tribe, accounts of their famous Chief Kalita, the work of devoted missionaries, the development of tribal education, and the friendship between the tribe and their "white Brothers" in Texas during the last one hundred and fifty years. Documented evidence of long research in recording this story of the Alabama-Coushatta Indians of Texas gives it authenticity. This 1963 book is a significant addition to the history of American Indians.

Download or read book Koasati Grammar written by Bel Abbey and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American Indian language belonging to the Muskogean linguistic family, Koasati is spoken today by fewer than five hundred people living in southwestern Louisiana and on the Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation in Texas. Geoffrey D. Kimball has collected material from the speakers of the larger Louisiana community to produce the first comprehensive description of Koasati. The book opens with a brief history of the Koasati. The chapters that follow describe Koasati phonology, verb conjugation classes and inflectional morphology, verb derivation, noun inflectional and derivational morphology, grammatical particles, and syntax and semantics. A discussion of Koasati speech styles illustrated with texts concludes the book. Because examples of grammatical construction are drawn from native speakers in naturally occurring discourse, they authoritatively document aspects of a language that is little known.
