Title: Views of the campaigns of the north-western army, &c
Subtitle: comprising sketches of the campaigns of Generals Hull and Harrison, a minute and interesting account of the naval conflict on Lake Erie, military anecdotes, abuses in the army, plan of a military settlement, view of the lake coast from Sandusky to Detroit
Description: This book was published in the same year that the War of 1812 ended. The author was a participant in the campaigns he describes, and most of the narrative is a first-person account, with some overview added occasionally. It is a very different approach than that taken by Brown in An Authentic History of the Second War for Independence, found on this same web page. The account concludes with the re-occupation of Detroit in late 1813.
