War of 1812... John Armstrong Jr...

Item # 703073 ·

THE WAR, New York, March 15, 1814  Most of the front page is taken up with: "Documents...Correspondence between the Secretary of War & Brig. General Boyd" all datelined Fort George & includes letters signed by John Armstrong and W. Scott.
Similar content carries over to page 2 with 4 letters signed by John Armstrong. Also: "British Veracity" "Summary" and "Marine Memoranda" among other items.
 Four pages, 9 by 11 1/4 inches, reglued at the blank spine, nice condition.

This is a fascinating, short-lived newspaper, having begun in 1812 for the exclusive purpose of reporting on the War of 1812 (hence the title) with no advertisements. When the war ended, so did this newspaper.
