056 The War of 1812: 1813 - Victory on the Great Lakes

If 1812 was characterized as a year of American disappointments,
1813 was a year of victories and opportunities. The Americans
were able to defeat Tecumseh and his British allies at the Battle
of the River Thames and Oliver H. Perry decisively defeated the
British squadron at the Battle of Lake Erie. We will also take
some time to finish up our discussion on the naval war of 1812,
switching gears and talking about the iron men who crewed these
wooden ships. Enjoy!
