AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Although William Henry Harrison served the shortest term as president in American history, his legacy as a military leader and presidential candidate has lived on. As governor of the Indiana Territory, Harrison became well known for fighting the Battle of Tippecanoe. After the War of 1812, in which he served as a brigadier general, he accepted the Whig party's nomination for president. Called "the log cabin hard cider" candidate, Harrison played up his military career and image as a hard worker to help him win the election of 1840. After only one month in office, he developed pneumonia and died on April 4, 1841. Despite Harrison's brief term in office, his unconventional campaign techniques forever changed political campaigns.
