The War and its Myths
This excerpt from the biography of Charles MAIR indicates how novelists and poets came to view the war in the latter part of the century:
“For his subject he selected the Shawnee leader Tecumseh* who had died in the War of 1812, which he viewed as ‘the turning point of Canada's destiny.’”
