What do y'all suggests about the history of our great state. I am mostly interested in Indian history/battles pre antebellum period and the civil war in Alabama and the Alabamians who served in the war. Thanks!

If violence is your last resort, you failed to use enough of it at the outset. Self-defense is a situation that you'd nearly give anything to have avoided...so be ready.

If that is the case, you should read what is perhaps still the best book on the subject, Halbert and Ball's Creek War of 1813 and 1814, originally published in the 1890s. Greg Waselkov's book A Conquering Spirit about the battle of Fort Mims is a great detailed look at one of the early conflicts while providing an excellent overview of the war.
