Synopsis

Before Alabama was a state, this land was already home.

This collected edition brings together the three volumes of the Alabama Frontier Series.

The Land Before Alabama traces the rivers, valleys, and communities that existed long before the state line: first peoples and a changing Ice Age landscape, mound centers and long-distance trade, Coosa country, Cherokee and Muscogee towns, clans, households, law, and the tightening borderland of the eighteenth century.

Taking of the Land follows what came next: roads, war, treaties, courts, settlement, and the making of Alabama.

The Land Still Speaks asks what remained after the official map looked settled: survival, memory, living nations, family stories, and the ground that still holds the older story.

Written in clear, evidence-driven prose.

History remembers the conquerors. This series remembers everyone else.
