4.0 out of 5 stars
Buy if interested in soldiers and marines of Perry's fleet.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Deep Water Sailors, Shallow Water Soldiers (Paperback)
This book is of primary interest to the person wanting to know about the soldiers and marines of the US Lake Erie fleet in 1813, and of secondary interest to the person wanting to know about the sailors. It has a short history of the campaign and battle of Lake Erie which is inferior to the account in many general War of 1812 histories. It then lists who shared in the Prize money from capture of the British fleet by ship, who was killed or wounded by ship, the soldiers by unit they came from, the 48 hour volunteers, and the officers and sailors who accompanied Perry from Rhode Island. Then comes a list of marines serving in fleet but not battle with a paragraph each and a list of soldiers and marines who served in battle with a paragraph each.
