The book Siege and Relief of Fort Wayne in the War of 1812 by Robert B. McAfee is a historical account of the events that took place during the War of 1812 in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The book provides a detailed description of the siege of Fort Wayne by the British and their Native American allies, as well as the subsequent relief by American forces.The author begins by setting the stage for the conflict, describing the political and military tensions that led to the outbreak of war. He then goes on to chronicle the events leading up to the siege of Fort Wayne, including the British capture of Detroit and the subsequent Native American attacks on American settlements.The bulk of the book is devoted to the siege itself, with the author providing a blow-by-blow account of the British and Native American attacks on Fort Wayne. He describes the tactics used by both sides, the casualties suffered by each, and the heroic actions of individual soldiers and commanders.Finally, the book concludes with the relief of Fort Wayne by American forces under the command of General William Henry Harrison. The author describes the march of the relief force, the battles fought along the way, and the eventual lifting of the siege.Overall, Siege and Relief of Fort Wayne in the War of 1812 is a well-researched and detailed account of a little-known battle in a largely forgotten war. It will appeal to anyone interested in military history, the War of 1812, or the early history of the American Midwest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
