"Many conflicts in this nation's history compete for the title of most unknown war, but the Creek War of 1813-1814 and the related Southern campaigns of the larger War of 1812 have perhaps the best claim on that notoriety. Little understood because of their brevity, relative small military forces engaged and complexity, these conflicts dramatically altered the history of the United States. The Creek War and the War of 1812 initiated several far-reaching changes in the Old Southwest, the frontier region that included portions of Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, Florida and the future states of Mississippi and Alabama. These wars led to the further development of slave-based cotton agriculture in the region, the forced removal of Native Americans, the securing of large portions of the Gulf South against European powers and perhaps most importantly, launched the career of one of America's most influential military and political leaders"--Preface.
