Milford's Memoir: Or, a Cursory Glance at My Different Travels & My Sojourn in the Creek Nation

In 1775 Milford traveled from France to America. He spent much of this time in the Carolinas among the Creek Indians, becoming a member of the Creek Confederacy, eventually rising to Grand War Chief, commander of all Creek forces. Rather than fight in the American Revolution, Milford led 200 warriors on an expedition to search for the origin of the Creek people. Milford eventually returned to France to participate in the French Revolution. Details are unfiltered: consider his accounts of the "Drunken One-Eyed Gougers" of the Carolinas, and the Choctaw divorce ceremony.
