		Lachlan McGillivray, greatly assisted by his marriage into the powerful Creek family, was enabled to extend his projects and thus became a man of wealth, owning two plantations, and numerous negroes as well as stores in Savannah and Augusta, stocked with goods that attracted the desires of the Indians.
		McGillivray had great influence at this time and he was approached by the British through Colonel Tait who was stationed on the Coosa; bestowing on the chief the rank and pay of a British colonel they hoped to secure the aid of the Creek Nation in the conflict against the rebellious Americans.
		McGillivray was not of a robust constitution and while he led several expeditions during the war his particular ability lay in his great gift of diplomacy and his power to control men, and raise forces for the king.

		Colonel McGillivray and his suite rode horses and the journey by way of Richmond, Fredericksburg, and Philadelphia was that of a conquering hero which no doubt greatly appealed to the vanity of the chief.
		Durant, with characteristic McGillivray boldness, with her negro maid, mounted horses and rode three days, camping out at night, to the Hickory Ground, assembled the chiefs, and holding over them the vengence of her brother she forced the arrest of the leaders and thus ended what would have been a bloody project.

		McGillivray was sure to learn of this, and the Spanish feared that he might transfer his loyalty to the Americans in the belief that an Anglo-Spanish war would cut off his source of supply and leave him helpless against the Georgians.
		McGillivray was made an honorary member of the St. Andrews Society, an organization of true Scotsmen, and- most amazing of all—the Creek chieftain ate at the same table with the somewhat uncomfortable senators and representatives of Georgia.

		It is fascinating to learn of Lachlan's diligent efforts to see to the well-being of his Scottish clan members while forsaking the well-being of his own Creek wife and children.
		One glaring error is Cashin's assertion that Lachlan's wife, Sehoy, could not be the daughter of a French military officer by the name of Marchand because no such officer served in the region.
		Another unfortunate aspect of the book is that Cashin adopts the McGillivray family legend that Lachlan arrived in Georgia as an indentured servant and lived in Darien for awhile before moving to Charleston and becoming involved in the Indian trade.
