Description:A. D. Ellis, Principal Chief of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, and Gary W. Babb have collaborated on The People’s Warrior, documenting his twenty years of elected public service as a National Council Representative, Second Chief, and Principal Chief of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation. This book is part biographical, part memoirs, and part documentation of internal confrontations focusing primarily on the Chief’s controversial two terms (8 years) as Principal Chief. With the influence of increasing, massive tribal wealth generated from gaming revenues of nine casinos, came greed and corruption. Through the Chief’s Herculean efforts to control and clean up corruption within a large, sovereign Indian nation, his terms as Principal Chief were plagued with never ending conflict and litigation in the Tribal and Supreme Courts of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, challenging his authority to govern at every opportunity. Chief Ellis prevailed in all of these hard fought battles, but the details of “behind the scene activities” and subsequent battles were unfortunately never revealed until now. The People’s Warrior, which documents many of the battles fought by Chief Ellis on behalf of the Creek people, finally reveals these details. This documentation is presented through the Chief’s memoirs, Muskogee Nation News articles, Executive Orders, summarized court testimony, and rulings from the many court challenges.
