(Sabin 36274) (Kentucky, Coleman 419) (Howes 3309) This campaign biography was also published in Boston in 1834. A scarce work. Richard M. Johnson (1780-1850) served as the ninth Vice President of the United States in the Martin Van Buren administration, rising to political fame on the claim that he killed Shawnee Chief Tecumseh. Johnson served as a colonel in the Kentucky Militia during the War of 1812. Along with his brother, he led troops in the Battle of the Thames, where many claimed that he personally killed Tecumseh. This claim was refuted during the 1836 presidential election, but historians agree the weight of evidence points to Johnson being the soldier who killed Tecumseh.
