Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"This book is a welcome addition to the growing number of studies challenging Chapman Milling's and Verner Crane's moral argument of "good" Indians versus "bad" colonists. In recent years, historians increasingly appreciate that a "middle ground" existed in most colonist-Indian relationships, and Ramsey fits nicely into this mode of thinking."-Brett Richard Bell, Southern Historian "The first book-length study on a conflict so pivotal in early American, Native American, and southern history, The Yamasee War does not disappoint. . . . A talented historian, Ramsey guides his readers through the complex and tangled motivations that led to war and explores its consequences for all residents of the colonial South."-Christina Snyder, Journal of American History "The Yamasee War is a thoroughly impressive study and a welcome addition to the Indians of the Southeast series published by the University of Nebraska Press."-Matthew T. Pearcy, Journal of America's Military Past "Specialists in colonial and Native American history as well as graduate students and advanced undergraduates will find Ramsey's treatment of the Yamasee War thought provoking and compelling."-David A. Nichols, Journal of American Ethnic History "The Yamasee War is an important read for anyone interested in the field of southern ethnohistory."-Michael P. Morris, South Carolina Historical Magazine Read more...

Propaganda
Reader, be aware. Colonial propaganda is not history. Primary sources should be understood with an equally critical approach, regardless of whether the author is Indigenous or colonial.
