The Battle of Tippecanoe

The Battle of Tippecanoe was fought on November 7, 1811 near present-day Battle Ground, Indiana. The combatants included an American army led by the Governor of the Indiana Territory, William H. Harrison, and an Indian confederacy led by a Shawnee Indian known as “The Prophet.”

During the first few decades of United States existence, the fate of the Republic was sometimes in doubt. American and Indian armies were often closely matched and the prospect of victory on either side was tenuous. Want to learn more about aspect of American history?
