Journal Of An Emigrating Party Of Pottawattomie Indians: Indiana Magazine Of History, December 1925 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781161640373)

The ""Journal Of An Emigrating Party Of Pottawattomie Indians"" is a historical document that was originally published in the Indiana Magazine of History in December 1925. It was written by William Polke, who was a government agent and interpreter for the Pottawattomie Indians during the 1830s. The journal chronicles the journey of a group of Pottawattomie Indians as they were forced to leave their ancestral lands in Indiana and move to a new reservation in Kansas. The journey was long and difficult, and the Pottawattomie Indians faced many challenges along the way, including harsh weather conditions, food shortages, and illness. Polke's journal provides a unique perspective on this period of American history, as it is written from the point of view of someone who was intimately involved in the relocation process. The journal also sheds light on the experiences of the Pottawattomie Indians themselves, as they were forced to leave behind their homes and way of life and adapt to a new environment. Overall, the ""Journal Of An Emigrating Party Of Pottawattomie Indians"" is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the experiences of Native Americans during a pivotal period in American history.This Document Is Contained In Vol. XXI, No. 4, December 1925 Issue Of The Indiana Magazine Of History.
