Much news from the War of 1812...



Item # 710799

April 27, 1813

THE WAR, New York, April 27, 1813  The entire front page is taken up with: "British Parliament - American Affairs" which carries over to page 2.
Inside: "Impressment of American Seamen" " which includes 3 affidavits; "To the Young Men of Ohio" "Northwestern Army" "Naval Memoranda" with the back page having letters from Baltimore, Fort Stoddard, Dover, Delaware, Ogdensburgh, Charleston & New London.
Four pages, 9 by 11 1/4 inches, minor foxing, nice condition.

This is a fascinating, short-lived newspaper, having begun in 1812 with the exclusive purpose of reporting on the War of 1812 (hence the title). When the war ended, so did this newspaper.
