Not sure it's on the net though.
It is COMMON KNOWLEDGE among historians.
The Cherokee lost their lands through FORCED SALES ~ just like those people in Connecticut.
Some things never change.
BTW, the Cherokee tribes were fairly wealthy for their time.
Their lands were not bought. The government forced them to trade for wilderness land given to the group and took land owned by individuals. They looted the homes before burning them to the ground. Then the government gave the land to Whites by lottery.
