The great Indian war leader, Tecumseh, had been a thorn in the side of the Americans for a generation.
特库姆塞率领印第安人作战, 战功彪炳, 美国人引以为患, 前后达三十年。
One good example is Charles Royster's critically acclaimed the Destructive War: William Tecumseh Sherman, Stonewall Jackson, and the Americans, published in 1991.
Ohio-born William Tecumseh Sherman was named after Tecumseh, the Shawnee chief who had tried to unite Ohio River Valley Native American tribes in the early 19th century.
