Summary "General Anthony Wayne's Expedition into the Indian Country," prepared by the staff of the Public Library of Fort Wayne and Allen County, is a historical account published in the mid-20th century. This pamphlet outlines the military campaigns led by General Anthony Wayne during the conflicts with Native American tribes in the newly acquired United States territory after the Revolutionary War. The work provides insight into Wayne's strategic efforts to establish American authority and security in the Northwest Territory. The book details General Wayne’s journey and military operations from his recruitment of forces in Pittsburgh to his notable engagements, including the pivotal Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794. It chronicles his encounters with Native American leaders such as Little Turtle and his efforts to fortify positions like Fort Recovery and Fort Defiance. Ultimately, Wayne's successful campaign culminated in the establishment of Fort Wayne, marking a significant victory for American forces and consolidating control over the region. This account not only highlights Wayne’s military acumen but also emphasizes the complex interactions between the emerging United States and Native American nations during this tumultuous period.
