Escape From Fort Madison
The Iowa Vortex almost got us a couple of times while traveling across the state. We thought we were home free when we entered Fort Madison but that was not to be! Commentary starts at about the two minute mark. Or, turn off the audio and enjoy a high-def tour of the town, a train, and the double decker bridge over the Mississippi River.

THE GREAT RIVER - Old Fort Madison
Old Fort Madison Site Manager Dr. Eugene Watkins talks about the history of the site. Fort Madison was attacked numerous times during the War of 1812. The fighting around the fort began with Winnebago harassment in March and April 1812, which killed two soldiers. In September 1812 Fort Madison was targeted as part of Tecumseh’s Offensive and sustained a four-day siege in which one soldier was killed. Again in April and May 1813 the post was harassed by hostile warriors allied to the British. In July 1813 six soldiers were killed in two separate skirmishes outside the fort. Periodic harassment continued until the fort was finally abandoned in November 1813 due to the failure of the contractor to supply the fort with usable rations.
