description:
Don Marler has written a groundbreaking work on a fascinating group of people known collectively as the Redbones. With likely connections to many of the South's early mixed-ethnic populations, the Redbones have almost certainly played a larger role in the westward settlement of this nation than history has heretofore acknowledged. He approaches his subject with a firm hand and talked a broad view of both the importance--and the impact--of these long-ignored settlers.
