Here is perhaps the earliest, longest-running account of daily life in the Cherokee Nation. This book series spans from 1801—the beginning of the Moravian mission in today’s Georgia— through the Trail of Tears in 1838, and up until the Civil War and beyond. In diaries, letters, and reports, Moravian missionaries noted the events, momentous as well as routine, that affected them and the Cherokee people. The Moravian Archives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina is compiling these volumes with the principal support of the Cherokee Nation in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, and additional funding by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, Cherokee Moravian Historical Association, Wachovia Historical Society, and Friends of Moravian Archives.
