With detailed profiles of the commanders and accounts of the battles, this highly illustrated title charts Native American commander Tecumseh’s fall as the American forces secured control of the North-West frontier during the War of 1812. In an engagement that included the future US president William Henry Harrison, American naval hero Oliver Hazard Perry and the legendary Shawnee leader Tecumseh the Americans prevailed, due in part to their imaginative use of Kentucky mounted riflemen to charge British regular infantry and artillery. Their victory allowed them to secure the North-West frontier, a crucial strategic gain in the War of 1812.Drawing on his expertise of US Native American conflicts, historian John F. Winkler investigates the battle of the Thames, bringing the conflict to life through detailed analysis, combat reports and stunning specially commissioned illustrations.
