Book Synopsis
A revealing saga detailing the economic, familial, and social bonds forged by Indian trader George Galphin in the early American South. A native of Ireland, George Galphin arrived in South Carolina in 1737 and quickly emerged as one of the most proficient deerskin traders in the South.

Trade Review
Detailing Galphin's social and economic networks was obviously painstaking work because it involved tracking the lives and fates of so many different people, especially in the case of Creek men and women who oftentimes appear only fleetingly in the documents and then oftentimes under various names. Yet Rindfleisch has done it, and he presents convincing and well-argued evidence for virtually every node in Galphin's network."" - Robbie Ethridge, author of From Chicaza to Chikcasaw: The European Invasion and the Transformation of the Mississippian World, 1540–1715
