Book excerpt: "An insightful, unflinching portrayal of the remarkable siblings who came closer to altering the course of American history than any other Indian leaders."⁠ —H.W. Brands, author of The Zealot and the Emancipator The first biography of the great Shawnee leader to make clear that his misunderstood younger brother, Tenskwatawa, was an equal partner in the last great pan-Indian alliance against the United States. Until the Americans killed Tecumseh in 1813, he and his brother Tenskwatawa were the co-architects of the broadest pan-Indian confederation in United States history. In previous accounts of Tecumseh's life, Tenskwatawa has been dismissed as a talentless charlatan and a drunk. But award-winning historian Peter Cozzens now shows us that while Tecumseh was a brilliant diplomat and war leader--admired by the same white Americans he opposed--it was Tenskwatawa, called the "Shawnee Prophet," who created a vital doctrine of religious and cultural revitalization that unified the disparate tribes of the Old Northwest. Detailed research of Native American society and customs provides a window into a world often erased from history books and reveals how both men came to power in different but no less important ways. Cozzens brings us to the forefront of the chaos and violence that characterized the young American Republic, when settlers spilled across the Appalachians to bloody effect in their haste to exploit lands won from the British in the War of Independence, disregarding their rightful Indian owners. Tecumseh and the Prophet presents the untold story of the Shawnee brothers who retaliated against this threat--the two most significant siblings in Native American history, who, Cozzens helps us understand, should be writ large in the annals of America.

Download or read book Tecumseh s War written by Donald R. Hickey and published by . This book was released on 2020-10 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the dawn of the nineteenth century, Native American dominance of the Northwest Territory was threatened by a series of treaties designed to open the land to US settlement. In response, a coalition of tribes launched what would come to be known as Tecumseh's War, named after the charismatic Shawnee war chief who was the guiding force behind the Native confederacy. Often treated today as an adjunct to the War of 1812, Tecumseh's War deserves to be disentangled from that conflict and studied in its own right. As author Donald R. Hickey shows, at stake was nothing short of the future of Native Americans in the heart of North America. With the might of the British behind them, it was the last time that Native Americans stood any realistic chance of defending their lands and their freedom. The history of this pivotal conflict features larger-than-life figures including Tecumseh, Tenskwatawa "the Prophet," and Black Hawk on the Native side; and Thomas Jefferson, William Henry Harrison, and Richard M. Johnson on the US side. The defeat of the American Indians coupled with the British decision to abandon them in peace negotiations with the United States had catastrophic consequences for the Indian nations by opening the Old Northwest to a flood of white settlers. Tecumseh's War is military history at its finest, placing the Native American struggle against white settlement in North America front and center.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Battle of the Thames, also called Battle of Moraviantown (Oct. 5, 1813) in the War of 1812, decisive U.S. victory over British and Indian forces in Ontario, Canada, enabling the United States to consolidate its control over the Northwest. After the U.S. naval triumph in the Battle of Lake Erie in September 1813, the British commander at Detroit, Brigadier General Henry A. Procter, found his position untenable and began a hasty retreat across the Ontario peninsula. He was pursued by about 3,500 U.S. troops under Major General William Henry Harrison, who was supported by the U.S. fleet in command of Lake Erie. The forces met near Moraviantown on the Thames River, a few miles east of what is now Thamesville. The British, with about 600 regulars and 1,000 Indian allies under Tecumseh, the Shawnee intertribal leader, were greatly outnumbered and quickly defeated. Many British troops were captured and Tecumseh was killed, destroying his Indian alliance and breaking the Indian power in the Ohio and Indiana territories. After this battle, most of the tribes abandoned their association with the British. After destroying the Moraviantown, a village of Christian Indians, the U.S. troops returned to Detroit. The U.S. victory helped catapult Harrison into the national limelight and eventually the presidency. Quoted from Encyclopedia Britannica online article.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tecumseh: Or, the Battle of the Thames, a National Drama: In Five Acts This night a native bar unfolds a scene That, yet, abides within the mem'ry green; His first attempt the Thespian art to reach, Heroic deeds through mimic life to teach. Long had the Nation, ere to arms she rushed, Suffered - till pity wept and virtue blush'd; Spies round the land like gaunt Hyena's prowl'd, While faction, like an unchain'd maniac howl'd. Our gallant mariners - forbear the theme - Their blood, from scourgings, dyed the ocean stream: The savage axe was whetted for our doom, The vandal torch was lighted to consume. Columbia dropp'd the olive from her hand, She grasp'd her arrows and drew forth her brand; In awe profound, the nations from afar, Gazed to behold her ride on Vict'ry's car. High beat the gen'rous heart - her praises rung From every voice that had a Freeman's tongue. The foe, at length, humanity was taught, And back the dove the peaceful olive brought. Rank'd with those feats that admiration claims, In brilliance stands "The Battle of the Thames;" At Raisin's stream, and at Miami's flood, Had the stern Indian glutted him with blood. Lo! Perry's voice in startling thunder spoke, And Johnson! soon, the savage sceptre broke: The mighty Chief, before him, prostrate fell, With whom expired the last appaling yell. The West, in mourning weeds, look'd on and smil'd, And hail'd the Champion as her first-born child. The poet, now, will this event explore, He craves your candor, but - asks no more.
