Tecumseh District Library hosts The Legacy of Chief Tecumseh and The Prophet on Facebook Live on Tuesday, June 8, 2021, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. This special live event can be viewed from the library's Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/Tecumseh-District-Library-192148050127/. Award-winning historian and author Peter Cozzens will discuss his new book on Shawnee leaders Tecumseh and his brother, Tenskwatawa. Cozzens, a retired U.S. Foreign Service officer, will share his thoughts from Tecumseh and the Prophet: The Shawnee Brothers who Defied a Nation. The book is the Shawnee leader's first biography in at least 20 years; it is also the first to make clear that his misunderstood younger brother, Tenskwatawa, was an equal partner in the last great pan-Indian alliance against the United States. Author or editor of 16 books on the American Civil War and the Indian Wars of the American West, Cozzens in 2002 won the William R. Rivkin Award, the American Foreign Service Association's highest honor. This virtual historical lecture is made possible through the generosity of the Friends of Tecumseh District Library and The Tecumseh Herald. Tecumseh District Library invites all to this special event. The library is located at 215 North Ottawa Street. For additional information, call Chuck Harpst, Reference/Local History Librarian, at the library, 423-2238. The library's web site can be accessed at http://www.tecumsehlibrary.org.
