Till the People killed Tecumseh in 1813, he and his brother Tenskwatawa have been the co-architects of essentially the most intensive Indian alliance in American historical past. In earlier accounts of Tecumseh’s life, Tenskwatawa was seen as an incompetent quack and a drunkard. However award-winning historian Peter Cozzens now exhibits us that whereas Tecumseh was an excellent diplomat and warfare chief – admired by the very white People he opposed – Tenskwatawa, referred to as the “Shawnee Prophet”, who created an essential doctrine of faith and tradition. the revival unifies the varied tribes of the Previous Northwest. The detailed research of Native American society and customs gives a window right into a world usually erased from historical past and divulges how each males got here to energy in several however not so alternative ways. much less essential.

For me, it was fascinating to be taught extra in regards to the prophet after the Battle of Tippecanoe: his continued position within the Indian confederacy, and his model progressively falling into darkness following the demise of his brother. A number of the finer factors about Tecumseh are additionally explored in higher element: particularly, his perception in his brother’s connection to nice spirits and their relationship in the course of the transfer.
