Description
A view of the late 1814 British squadron underway on Lake Ontario. The ship-of-the-line St. Lawrence leads, followed by Prince Regent, Star, Princess Charlotte, Montreal, Toronto, Niagara, and Netley. Yeo's ships ruled Lake Ontario in the fall of 1814, while the Americans stayed in port building their response. Another year of war would have seen five ships-of-the-line on the lake -- at a staggering cost to both sides.
