Fort Mims Massacre Reconsidered by Elmo Scott Watson
A long historical critique revisits the Fort Mims attack of August 1813, detailing the siege by Creek forces under Weatherford, the heavy toll on both soldiers and civilians, and the ensuing debate over the term massacre. It traces comparisons with other nineteenth century killings, the roles ofWeatherford and Jackson, and cites various authorities on casualty figures and motives.
