USS Lawrence vs HMS Detroit: The War of 1812 on the Great Lakes (Duel)
Year: 2017 Language: english Author: Mark Lardas Genre: History Publisher: Osprey Publishing Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 81 Description: Most of the critical naval fighting during the War of 1812 took place, not on the high seas, but on the inland lakes of North America: the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain. Carrying between 12 and 22 cannon, the British and American sloops-of-war were ship-rigged, brig-rigged or schooner-rigged vessels with their guns on a single deck. Actions often involved two ships facing each other broadside to broadside, the best example of which was the battle of Lake Erie in 1813 where HMS Detroit led a Royal Navy squadron against the USS Lawrence-led US Navy.
