The bloody Battle of Tippecanoe was only the beginning. It’s 1811
and President James Madison has ordered the destruction of Shawnee
warrior chief Tecumseh’s alliance of tribes in the Great Lakes
region. But while General William Henry Harrison would win this
fight, the armed conflict between Native Americans and the newly
formed United States would rage on for decades. Bestselling authors
Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard venture through the fraught
history of our country’s founding on already occupied lands, from
General Andrew Jackson’s brutal battles with the Creek Nation to
President James Monroe’s epic “sea to shining sea” policy, to
President Martin Van Buren’s cruel enforcement of a “treaty”
that forced the Cherokee Nation out of their homelands along what
would be called the Trail of Tears. O’Reilly and Dugard take
readers behind the legends to reveal never-before-told historical
moments in the fascinating creation story of America. This
fast-paced, wild ride through the American frontier will shock
readers and impart unexpected lessons that reverberate to this day.
