Books like No resting place by William Humphrey


A fictionalized tale recounts the forced removal of the Cherokee nation from Georgia, to Tennessee, to Texas along the Trail of Tears and the devastation of that exodus to Native Americans. The Cherokee Indians of the State of Georgia, including those who have been Christian for generations, are forced to move west along the Trail of Tears. Nothing - not the white man's god nor the Chief justice of the Supreme Court - can change their fate. The story explores the loss of culture and tradition as the Cherokee people endure this harsh journey.
