A Brutal Reckoning: The Creek Indians And The Epic War For The American South

'Cozzens is a master storyteller' The Times

'Extremely well researched' Times Literary Supplement

From the devastating invasion by Spanish conquistadors in the sixteenth century to the relentless pressure from white settlers 150 years later, A Brutal Reckoning tells the story of encroachment on the vast Native American territory in the Deep South, which gave rise to the Creek War, the bloodiest in American Indian history, and propelled Andrew Jackson into national prominence, as he led the US Army in a ruthless campaign.

It was a war that involved not only white Americans and Native Americans but also the British and the Spanish, and ultimately led to the Trail of Tears, in which the government forcibly removed the entire Creek people, as well as the neighbouring Chickasaw, Choctaw and Cherokee nations, from their homelands, leaving the way open for the conquest of the West. No other single Indian conflict had such a significant impact on the fate of the country.

Wonderfully told and brilliantly detailed, A Brutal Reckoning is a sweeping history of a crucial period in the destruction of America's native tribes.

'Cozzens recounts this tale with his customary equanimity, never attempting to embroider that which is already horrifying... Sadly, this is a book that many Americans won't want to read. It will probably be banned from some schools. Cozzens nevertheless deserves praise for having the courage, in today's climate, to write it.' - The Times

'A penetrating and fast-paced account...The story of the Creek War is a sorry one, but Cozzens recounts it both with fairness and with a richness of color and detail... Cozzens writes with sensitivity about the political and cultural vise in which the Creeks were crushed.' - Wall Street Journal

'As has come to be expected from Cozzens's work, A Brutal Reckoning masterfully blends important cultural and biographical details with expressive and engaging military history.' - Washington Post

Amazing Pimple Patches - Actually Work!
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
Effectiveness: These Mighty Patch Original hydrocolloid patches have been absolutely incredible for treating breakouts quickly and effectively without harsh chemicals or painful extraction. The patches work remarkably well overnight, drawing out impurities and reducing the size and inflammation of pimples by morning. I love how they protect blemishes from picking and touching, which prevents further irritation and scarring. The clear design makes them virtually invisible during wear, so I can use them during the day without feeling self-conscious. The patches stick securely without being painful to remove, and they genuinely speed up the healing process compared to leaving breakouts untreated. Quality: Hero Cosmetics has created an exceptional product with these hydrocolloid patches that clearly demonstrates superior manufacturing quality. The adhesive is perfectly balanced - strong enough to stay in place through sleep and daily activities but gentle enough to remove without skin irritation. The hydrocolloid material is high-grade and effectively draws out fluid and impurities without over-drying the surrounding skin. The patches maintain their integrity throughout wear and don't fall apart or lose effectiveness. The sterile packaging ensures product safety and hygiene, which is essential for treating open or inflamed skin. Value for Money: These pimple patches provide outstanding value when you consider how effectively they treat breakouts while preventing scarring and further damage from picking. The cost per patch is reasonable considering the dramatic results they deliver, often clearing blemishes faster than expensive acne treatments. The prevention of scarring alone makes these worth far more than their price, as treating acne scars is much more expensive and time-consuming than preventing them. The convenience and effectiveness make these far more cost-effective than multiple skincare products or dermatologist visits for individual breakouts. These patches have become essential in my skincare routine and consistently deliver impressive results. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with occasional or persistent breakouts who wants fast, effective treatment!

The best patches!
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
These work amazingly well! I just stick one on before bed and by morning the pimple is noticeably flatter and less red. It really does what it says without any picking or irritation. They stay on all night even if I toss and turn, which I was surprised by, and they don’t feel uncomfortable at all while sleeping. I also like that they’re thin and kind of blend into the skin, so you don’t really notice them if you wear them during the day either. Super simple, effective, and way less stressful than dealing with breakouts the usual way. They fit well and the size is great, really absorbs all the yuck from a pimple. A great value for money!

Works Overnight—A Must‑Have for Surprise Breakouts
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried a lot of pimple patches over the years, and the Mighty Patch Original truly lives up to the hype. These patches are incredibly easy to use and work best overnight—just apply to clean, dry skin and let them do their thing. By morning, whiteheads are noticeably smaller (sometimes completely gone), redness is reduced, and the gunk is visibly absorbed into the patch. I love that they’re thin, clear, and stay put all night without irritation. They also prevent me from touching or picking at my skin, which is a huge bonus. The 36-count pack is a great value, and I always keep these on hand for surprise breakouts before an important day. Simple, effective, and gentle—this is one skincare product I consistently repurchase. Highly recommend!

Love this product but not the best for stubborn pimples
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
The Mighty Patch Original Patch from Hero Cosmetics is hands-down one of the best acne solutions I’ve used. These hydrocolloid stickers actually shrink pimples and whiteheads overnight — I wake up and see a noticeable difference, even on stubborn spots that usually take days to calm down. They’re super easy to use — just stick on before bed and let them work while you sleep. They stay put, even if you accidentally touch your face, and don’t irritate my skin. I also like that they’re practically invisible enough to wear during the day if needed. Great for emergency breakouts or everyday maintenance. For anyone who wants fast, gentle, mess-free results, these Mighty Patches deliver!

Truly Mighty! Best patches we’ve found.
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
These patches live up to the name! They are hands-down the best pimple patches I’ve used. The versatility and fit are perfect, and they actually stay put. I have very sensitive skin and have had zero issues with irritation, which is a huge win. My daughter uses them too and absolutely loves how effective they are. A must-have in our house!
