Glad to help out, Sublime. You can start by checking the various posts in this thread. Lotsa links...you can just pick and choose. I'd love to get more of an American point of view, though, as many of these sites are funded by the Canadian government.
Gentlemen, we all know there was more to the War of 1812 than beavertail. Sublime is on a mission. Let us know if you've come across a good read or website that can serve to broaden the discussion.
