Summary "Tennessee at the Battle of New Orleans" by Elbert L. Watson is a historical account published in the mid-20th century, specifically in the 1960s. The book focuses on the significant role played by Tennessee troops in the Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812, particularly detailing the contributions of General Andrew Jackson and his forces in this pivotal military engagement. The narrative recounts the events leading up to the battle, emphasizing the buildup of tensions between the United States and Great Britain, which culminated in the British invasion of New Orleans. Watson provides an in-depth portrayal of the strategies employed by both sides, highlighting how the Tennessee militia, under the leadership of Jackson and Generals Coffee and Carroll, displayed remarkable endurance and military skill in the face of a larger, well-trained British force. The book illustrates the potential consequences of the battle, not only for the immediate military landscape but also for the broader implications of unity and identity for the young nation. Through detailed accounts of the soldiers, their motivations, and the outcome of the battle, Watson emphasizes Tennessee's vital contributions to this decisive moment in American history.
