“Tecumseh’s War: The Epic Conflict for the Heart of America” is the first complete story of this major conflict. Distinguished historian Don Hickey detaches it from the War of 1812, moving Tecumseh’s confederation to center stage to tell the sweeping and engrossing story of this Indian War—the last time that Indigenous Peoples had a powerful European ally to oppose United States expansion and thus the last chance they had of shaping the future of the continent.
Donald R. Hickey is an award-winning author and historian. Called “the dean of 1812 scholarship” by the New Yorker, Don has written 12 books, including the highly-acclaimed “The War of 1812: A Forgotten Conflict.”

In this definitive account, historian D. Scott Hartwig chronicles the single bloodiest day in American history, which resulted in 23,000 casualties. The Battle of Antietam marked a vital turning point in the war: afterward, the conflict could no longer be understood as a limited war to preserve the Union, but was now clearly a conflict over slavery. Join the author for a detailed look at the battle based on decades of research.
D. Scott Hartwig is a retired supervisory historian at the Gettysburg National Military Park and the author of “To Antietam Creek” (2012).
