Deerskins and Duffels: The Creek Indian Trade with Anglo-America, 1685-1815Deerskins and Duffels documents the trading relationship in the eighteenth century between the Creek Indians and the Anglo American peoples who settled in what is now the southeastern United States.

Deerskins and Duffels documents the trading relationship in the eighteenth century between the Creek Indians and the Anglo-American peoples who settled in what is now the southeastern United States. The Creeks were the largest Indian nation in the Southeast, and through their trade alliance with the British colonies, they became the dominant Native power in the area.
The deerskin trade became the economic lifeblood of the Creeks after European contact. This book is the first to examine extensively the Creek side of this trade, especially the impact of commercial hunting on all aspects of Indian society. British trade is examined as well: the major traders and trading companies, how goods were taken to the Indians, how the traders lived, and how trade was used as a diplomatic tool. The author also discusses the Creek-Anglo cooperation in the trade of Indian slaves that resulted in the virtual destruction of the Native peoples of Florida. This second edition features a new introduction by the author.

Never would have expected this little book to bring so much joy to my grandkids <3
Format: Paperback
This little story is a charmer and would make the sweetest gift for a child for Valentine's day !! I orderd it for my grandkids ( the baby bears ) they are 6 ..4 ..and 2 and I can honestly say they were both laughing while reading it to me ..they had already read it 3 times in 2 days and me and there mom also got a kick out of it The story is about a boy who is making Valentines day cards for his classmates but he was upset with a few of them one for making fun of his glasses and he devoted to write something not super nice more of a silly ryme and bc he didn't want to say something nice to them he didn't sign his name to those 2 cards and they end up figuring it out ..the book ends very nice with a apology and they all forgave each other ..it's such a great book and the silly humor really ticked the kids so happy I took a chance and got it ..I highly recommend this cute book

Great fun Valentines story for young children
Format: Paperback
Totally silly and fun for Valentines! Enjoyed reading a story with a moral to it about being a bully and returning harshness back, vengeful behavior. All in a silly story, a tale of forgiveness and friendship. Really good for Kindergarteners and young children who are learning about friendships. All the characters are animals and are so sweetly rendered. The wording is delightful and makes you laugh. I really enjoyed reading it to my grandkids.
