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.
