Officers Of The War Of 1812 With Portraits by John C. Fredriksen
Main Article Content
Abstract
It would be difficult to imagine a more arcane topic than the lives of the officers who commanded the "Left Division” of the American army in the battles of Chippewa Falls and Lundy’s Lane during the War of 1812. Yet that is what John C. Fredriksen examines in his misnamed book, Officers of the War of 1812. Along with brief sketches of army officers and their poorly reproduced portraits are a foreword by Fredriksen (in which he claims too much for his subjects and the importance of his work) and a skillful history of the campaign written by Donald E. Graves of the Canadian defense department.
