| Notes: | Sir Herbert Sawyer was in command of the North American squadron at the outset of the Anglo-American War of 1812-15. It is likely that this letter was written while commanding a squadron at Queenstown. The War of 1812, between the United States of America and the British Empire (particularly Great Britain and British North America), lasted from 1812 to 1815. It was fought chiefly on the Atlantic Ocean and on the land, coasts and waterways of North America. Physical description: 1 item. more |
