| Summary: |
The volume contains a defense of the military character of General William Henry Harrison, whose merits and soldierly ability had been severely criticized by Joel T. Headley in The Second War With England (2 v., New York, 1853). The papers by both writers deal particularly with the campaigns in the Northwest during the War of 1812. Todd's work was published in the National Intelligencer, October 19, 1854. The National Intelligencer published a rebuttal by Headley on November 9, 1854, and this also appears in the volume. The images displayed here are pages 1 through 5 of the volume. |
