Synopsis

The book ""Battle of Lake Erie: With Notices of Commodore Elliot's Conduct in That Engagement"" by Tristam Burges is a historical account of the Battle of Lake Erie that took place on September 10, 1813, during the War of 1812 between the United States and Great Britain. The book provides a detailed description of the events leading up to the battle, the tactics used by both sides, and the outcome of the battle. The author, Tristam Burges, was a lawyer and politician who served in the United States House of Representatives during the early 19th century. He was also a veteran of the War of 1812 and participated in the Battle of Lake Erie as a soldier. The book includes a discussion of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry's leadership during the battle and his famous message to General William Henry Harrison, ""We have met the enemy and they are ours."" It also provides insights into the conduct of Commodore Jesse D. Elliot, who commanded one of the American ships during the battle and was later court-martialed for his actions. Overall, ""Battle of Lake Erie: With Notices of Commodore Elliot's Conduct in That Engagement"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the War of 1812 or naval warfare in the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
