The Cherokees: A Population History is the first full-length demographic study of an American Indian group from the protohistorical period to the present. Thornton shows the effects of disease, warfare, genocide, miscegenation, removal and relocation, and destruction of traditional lifeways on the Cherokees. He discusses their mysterious origins, their first contact with Europeans (prob-ably in 1540), and their fluctuation in population during the eighteenth century, when the Old World brought them smallpox. The toll taken by massive relocations in the following century, most notably the removal of the Cherokees from the Southeast to In-dian Territory, and by warfare, predating the American Revolution and including the Civil War, also enters into Thornton's calculations. He goes on to measure the resurgence of the Cherokees in the twentieth century, focusing on such population centers as North Carolina, Oklahoma, and California.

Good Review of the Intel Disciplines
Format: Kindle
I rented this book as required for an intelligence collections course I as taking. It is a good rundown on the different INT disciplines and the bureaucratic organizations managing the different INT categories. This book does not really touch on the various collection programs used to manage collections, or what the nomenclature of those requirements are, so reading this book will not teach you about intelligence collection management beyond gaining a foundational understanding of what the various INTs are used for.

Don't buy school books from Amazon
Format: Paperback
Thought I bought new, book came with an obsurd "Amazon Rentals" sticker on it. Looks used and abused. Will not be buying books needed for school from Amazon ever again.

A great academic primer
Format: Paperback
I found this to a great source for looking up details on how the IC defines the types of data it gathers. It's not necessarily a straight-read type of title, but I do keep it by my sofa, when reading the daily paper. It helps to better understand the viability of such things like the use of patrol planes along the Arabian Gulf borders or how the raw data of the Steele Dossier helps inform the decision makers, for example.
