About this product
Product Information
1791 marked one of the worst military defeats the United States Army ever suffered. As Major General Arthur St. Clair led both regular Army and militia levee soldiers to the banks of the Wabash River, Native Americans rose to stop them--and stop the Army they did. In this fascinating study, Richard Lytle gives historians, genealogists, and local history buffs a monumental resource for the study of St. Clair's soldiers. Not only a detailed narrative of this campaign, this is also the most complete roster of soldiers available, and a comprehensive description of their origins, equipment and organization. This resource assembles in one place both the narrative and hard to find reference materials that genealogists and historians need to research and better understand this seminal event in America's westward growth.

...assembles both the narrative and hard-to-find reference materials that genealogists and historians need..., On November 4, 1791, the US Army, under the command of Major General Arthur St. Clair, suffered a major defeat. Expanding previous accounts, an Indiana historian/librarian includes a more complete roster of the units that fought against the Miami Indians on the banks of the upper Wabash River, a history of the tribe and the formation of the new US army. Lytle implies that, due to intentional as well as accidental destruction of records, the fate of every participant in the campaign may never be known. The roster and related Army details comprise about two-thirds of the book., ...what Lytle provides is a virtual treasure trove of biographies of the officers and rosters of each formation. While he describes the raising of the forces and the campaign in 135 pages, his detailed biographical data and unit rosters run to 285 pages! The officer biographies are great reading and create a vivid picture of the society of the early republic. While this is not the definitive story of St. Clair's defeat, it is an indispensable account of that event., ...well researched...excellent job detailing the many difficulties American governmental and military officials faced in raising an army and maintaining it in the field in the Old Northwest....perhaps the most valuable part of the book lies in the nine lists that comprise the bulk of the volume. In the lists, Lytle has painstakingly compiled brief biographies of all the officers who served in the campaign, as well as rosters of the enlisted men who served in the five national units....Lytle's work should be consulted by those with an interest in the history of the United States Army during the early national period. It also should constitute a valuable resource for genealogists.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
