Early Defeats
The war in the West had gone poorly for the United States. In August 1812, Gen. William Hull surrendered Detroit and his entire army to the British. On January 22, 1813, a second United States army led by James Winchester was defeated at French Town (present-day Monroe, Michigan) as it attempted to make its way to reclaim Detroit for the United States.HM Number | HMS7G |
