Today's anniversary Fallen Timbers

 The Battle of Fallen Timbers (1794), fought along the banks of the Maumee River, between an Indian Confederation of woodland tribes led by Chief Little Turtle and Gen. Anthony Wayne's Legion, is one of the most decisive battles in American history. What took place here (near Toledo, OH) decided the course of future westward expansion.

The Fallen Timbers Battlefield Preservation Commission and Toledo Metroparks invite you to explore this timeless location, and "walk in the footsteps" where history was made!! Video ©Native Sun Productions with music by David Arkenstone
