Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Campaigns of the War of 1812-15, Against Great Britain: Sketched and Criticised; With Brief Biographies of the American Engineers
As a fitting appendix to my work, I have given in Chapter X., the graphic journal OF lieut. Colonel wood, while Chief Engineer of major-gen eral Harrison, in his Northwestern Campaigns Of 1812 - 13. This Journal, often quoted from by his torians of the War of 1812 - 15, never before has been published. Through the great kindness Of the Colonel's niece, Mrs. D. G. Dodge of Rouse's Point, N. Y., I procured the original manuscript, with the exception of a few missing pages, and to prevent fur ther loss of any part of this valuable document, I obtained her consent to its appearance in this work. These ten chapters make up a volume, which I trust will prove worthy of the perusal of historical students.
