Indian scout, friend of General Andrew Jackson, and a slave owner, General Thomas S. Woodward was an active participant in the Muskogee Creek Indian Wars. During a two-year period, 1857-1859, he submitted letters to J. J. Hooker, editor of the Montgomery, Alabama Mail correcting errors, misinformation and the romanticized versions of the history of the period he found in Colonel Albert James Pickett's History of Alabama. The editor, with his permission, published those letters periodically, and after Woodward's death in December 1859, as a collection of reminiscences. Gifted with a remarkable memory, he wrote letters filled with first-hand details of the period that ended with the Indian Removal Act, by which the United States Government, under President Andrew Jackson, expropriated the remainder of Muskogee lands in Georgia and Alabama. In his letters he shows himself both ironic and amused at his own role in those events and does not apologize for his life. He records his admiration for some of those on both sides of the conflicts, Creeks, Mixed-blood, and Whites. As an historian, he was honest and fair, but a man molded by his time and place.And, as he says in his last letter published during his lifetime: "Peace to the Good and Brave."

Great summer workbook
Format: Paperback
This book is a great tool to use over summer break to prevent loss of learning. I have been using this book with my 2nd grader for a few weeks and he enjoys the short lessons. I would prefer the lessons have a few more questions to cover each lesson.

Great way to support summer learning!
Format: Paperback
I absolutely love the Summer Bridge Activities: Bridging Grades 3–4! This workbook is a fantastic way to keep kids engaged and learning over the summer break. The activities are well-designed, fun, and educational, providing the perfect balance between reinforcing what they’ve already learned and getting them excited for the next school year. The layout is visually appealing, with colorful pages and interactive exercises that make learning feel like play. What I appreciate most is how it covers key subjects like math, reading, writing, and critical thinking skills in bite-sized chunks that kids can easily manage. My child enjoyed doing a little bit each day, and I noticed significant improvement in their confidence as they completed each activity. It's great that this workbook also includes helpful tips for parents to guide their kids through the exercises. Overall, this is a must-have resource for parents looking to keep their children sharp and engaged during the summer while still having fun. Highly recommend!
