This plan charts a low, watery stretch of the Gulf Coast where the Tombigbee, Alabama, Tensaw, Perdido, and Mobile rivers meet in a tangle of channels and bayous. Its focus is the delta country of southwestern Alabama, far from the Tallapoosa bend where the battle of 1814 took place. That region passed among Spain, France, Britain, and the United States during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and the Tensaw settlements were the site of Fort Mims, attacked by Red Stick Creeks in 1813, which helped set off the Creek War. Maps like this one show how the river network shaped travel, trade, and military movement in the Old Southwest.
