$32.00

This work recaptures an interesting piece of history. Easy to follow, it provides records for six different military campaigns about which, not much has been written. It is divided into six sections, each section with its own fullname index. The following military campaigns are included in this collection: the Expedition against the Indians (1791); the Pennsylvania Insurrection (1794); the Naval War with France (1798-1801); the Naval War with Tripoli, Africa (1801-1805); the War with Great Britain (1812-1815); and the Naval War with Algiers, Africa (1815). Each of the sections is prefaced with introductory remarks describing the events leading up to the Congressional declaration and the mustering of necessary forces. The entries covering Army and militia information are usually grouped by company and include name, rank, dates of service, and additional information when available. Naval and Marine forces are usually arranged alphabetically by name and include rank, company, place of enlistment, dates of service, description of end of service, and other available information. Many men who served in more than one campaign have subsequent records listed.
