Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the Baltimore Riots of 1812, their root causes, and the conduct of leaders in government and militia during this fraught time. The author studies the suppression of the Federal Republican newspaper and the trial and acquittal of the perpetrators of the first violent riot as contributing to the rapidly escalating tensions. When the paper's editor attempted to reestablish the paper in Baltimore and defended his right to do so with an armed force, they found themselves besieged by an angry mob. City officials proved unable or unwilling to quell the violence, which culminated in the storming of the building and the brutal murders of a former Revolutionary War general, among others. The book concludes that many of the incidents that took place during the Baltimore Riots had a profound impact on the freedom of the press, the functioning of the justice system, and the rule of law.
