The 2022 A.M. Pate Award for the best book on the Civil War in the Trans-Mississippi has been awarded to Fay Yarbrough for her book Choctaw Confederates: The American Civil War in Indian Country published by the University of North Carolina Press. The respected Civil War Books and Authors review site said Choctaw Confederates is “an award-worthy feat of research and writing. Its wide-ranging treatment of the Choctaw offers much needed expansion to a literature of Civil War-era Indian Territory that remains disproportionately focused on the Cherokee.”
