In the early morning hours of Sunday, August 8, 1813, Hamilton and her fellow schooner Scourge were hove to with eleven other ships of Commodore Chauncey's American Squadron six miles off Port Dalhousie in Lake Ontario. They were awaiting first light to renew action against the British~Canadian Squadron of six ships commanded by Commodore James Lucas Yeo, Royal Navy. Around 2 a.m., a sudden squall blew across the lake and caught Hamilton and Scourge beam on, capsizing them and sending them to the bottom, 300 feet below, along with fifty~three hands. There were nineteen survivors. This was the largest single loss of life on the Great Lakes during the War of 1812. In 1971 the Royal Ontario Museum initiated a search for this famous and unique pair of vessels. The location of their resting places was confirmed in 1975, when special underwater research techniques showed Hamilton to be intact and sitting upright on the lake floor in near~freezing temperatures and almost utter darkness. A survey of Hamilton using the Jacques Cousteau mini~sub Soucoupe, provided additional documentation. In 1982, the National Geographic Society in cooperation with the HAMILTON~SCOURGE Foundation, conducted a photographic survey of both vessels which confirmed their near~perfect preservation and the presence of an astonishing range of artifacts. Author Emily Cain presents eyewitness accounts of the naval campaigns in which Hamilton and Scourqe were involved as well as a documented picture of their prewar role on the lake as merchant schooners. In particular, Seaman Ned Myers recounts firsthand the sinking of Hamilton and Scourge as told to one~time shipmate James Fenimore Cooper. Profusely illustrated with color photographs by National Geographic photographer Emory Kristof, engravings, portraits, documents, and drawings, Ghost Ships delightfully brings to life the story of these historical treasures which are exciting international interest. The cover shows the exquisite figurehead of Hamilton, which graces the deep, still waters of Lake Ontario and recalls the vessel's gentler days, prior to the War of 1812, as the merchant schooner Diana out of Oswego, New York. The figurehead represents the classical goddess of the hunt ( and motherhood); on her left side she wears only a quiver strapped over her bare shoulder.
