As the United States continued to grow in the early nineteenth century, its people began to covet the land of their native neighbors. This greed led to a horrific forced relocation that we now call the Trail of Tears. This title explores the buildup to the relocation, the terrible conditions the natives were forced to suffer, and the events impact on U.S.-Indian relations in the following years.
