Andrew Jackson and his forces won the Battle of Horseshoe Bend in 1814. Horseshoe Bend was the major battle of the Creek War, in which Jackson sought to clear the Mississippi Territory for American settlement. He commanded an army of Tennessee militia men, which he had turned into a well-trained fighting force.
The same week the Union took Fort Pulaski, General Ulysses S. Grant won a costly but decisive victory at Shiloh, Tennessee on the Tennessee River, the bloodiest battle of the war so far (over 23,000 casualties from only 100,000 soldiers), chasing the Confederacy out of western Tennessee.
