Book excerpt: The Creek Forth The Battle of the Creeks Niger-Delta, a riverine region in the southern part of Nigeria that accounted for about 80% of the national income of the Nigerian government. The region is infested with mayhem and arms struggle by the militants who claimed to be freedom fighters due to oil pollution and age-long neglects that turned the region into a haven for crimes and hostility. At the heat of the arms struggle, killings, kidnapping, hostage-taking, pipeline vandals, bunkering, and all sorts of vices that were difficult for the Nigerian security forces to curb, the USS Emory S Land with three special agents were sent by the American government to help train the Nigerian forces to curtail the militancy and all sorts of crime in the creek region. The special agents were instructed to avoid confrontation with the militants, but to train and offer strategic support to the Nigerian forces. The rules of engagement were later reviewed as the militants were on a rampage which led to a full-scale military operation. In this book, you will observe the display of struggle, conspiracy, power and character that resulted in a successful operation that brought peace back to the region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Creek Frontier, 1540–1783 is the first complete history of an American Indian tribe in the colonial period. Although much has been written of the Spanish, French, and British explorations in North America in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, little has been known of the Indian tribes that explorers such as De Soto and De Luna encountered. The Creek Indians, who occupied Alabama, Georgia, and much of northern Florida from the earliest days of Spanish exploration to shortly after the American Civil War, were a power to be reckoned with by Spain, France, and Britain in their efforts to gain control of that area. Always hostile to Spain, the Creeks were natural allies with the British, but they used other Europeans to further their interests. When they gave up their neutral position to ally themselves with the British against the American patriots, the Creeks found themselves completely at the mercy of their victorious enemies. Stressing Creek political institutions and diplomacy, this volume offers the most complete story of the rapacious “Queen” Mary Musgrove, and the rise to leadership of Alexander McGillivray. Creek Indian personalities of old emerge to share history’s spotlight with the wigged governors they struggled with in order to maintain autonomy for their people.
