Book Oliver Hazard Perry and the Battle of Lake Erie  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Oliver Hazard Perry and the Battle of Lake Erie Classic Reprint written by James Cooke Mills and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oliver Hazard Perry and the Battle of Lake Erie Who among all true Americans does not cherish the memory of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Grant, and Farragut, and of other patriots, whose deeds of valor and achievements of state have moulded our national progress? Among these patriots was another - the immortal Hero of Erie - upon whom was be stowed all the attributes that give lustre to valorous action and chivalrous self - devotion to the cause of his country; blended with modesty, kindness, courtesy, and With lively sympathies for humanity. To place the deeds and public services of Oliver Hazard Perry before his countrymen, of the present and succeeding generations, in a complete and enduring form, to show his true character, to depict his virtues without concealing his faults, is the purpose of this work. It is not intended to be an eulogy upon him, but a faithful history of the events of his life, so far as they are deemed of interest or of any importance in appreciating his character. If, however, some passages may seem to be unduly laden with praise, it is because the author has found it impossible, after delving into old and authenticated records of a century ago, to give a true account of the short but troubled life of Com modore Perry, without indulging in enthusiasm for the nobility of his character and for the important nature of his public services.

Download or read book Perry at Erie written by George Reid Yaple and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Perry at Erie: How Captain Dobbins, Benjamin Fleming and Others Assisted Him, Historical Incidents Having a Direct Bearing on the Battle of Lake Erie The story of Perry's Victory on Lake Erie, Sept. 10, 1813, is one that has thrilled the hearts of young Americans ever since, and will continue to inspire patriotism and pride in generations to come through all the history of our country. It has a special interest to Erie, Pennsylvania the surrounding countryside, and the Lake Erie region, for the reason that the little fleet, destined to wrest the supremacy of the Great Lakes from British dominion, was builded at Erie, of timbers that once stood on land afterwards included in the corporate limits of the city itself, and among the men who helped to hew the timbers and spike them in their places, were a number whose names are honored in the city's history. Oliver Hazard Perry first looked upon the village of Erie, March 27, 1813, and 209 days later (Oct. 22, 1813) he departed, never again to visit the scene of his many trials and tribulations preceding the day he fought and won the victory that placed his name high among those of the world's naval heroes and made his memory one to be cherished in American hearts so long as America shall remain a "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave." Perry was a dashing young naval hero of 27 years when he arrived in Erie by sleigh from Buffalo, N. Y., having been sent here by the United States government to take charge of a fleet of vessels, then building at the harbor front. It is not the purpose of the writer to dwell upon the causes or effects of the war of 1812, nor to deal at length with the facts more generally known.

  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Oliver Hazard Perry written by David C Skaggs and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed for his decisive victory over a Royal Navy squadron on Lake Erie in September 1813 and best known for his after-action report proclamation We have met the enemy and they are ours, Oliver Hazard Perry was one the early U.S. Navy s most famous heroes. In this modern, scholarly reassessment of the man and his career, Professor David Skaggs emphasizes Perry s place in naval history as an embodiment of the code of honor, an exemplar of combat courage, and a symbol of patriotism to his fellow officers and the American public. It is the first biography of Perry to be published in more than a quarter of a century and the first to offer an even-handed analysis of his career. After completing a thorough examination of primary sources, Skaggs traces Perry s development from a midshipman to commodore where he personified the best in seamanship, calmness in times of stress, and diplomatic skills. But this work is not a hagiographic treatment, for it offers a candid analysis of Perry s character flaws, particularly his short temper and his sometimes ineffective command and control procedures during the battle of Lake Erie. Skaggs also explains how Perry s short but dramatic naval career epitomized the emerging naval professionalism of the young republic, and he demonstrates how the Hero of Lake Erie fits into the most recent scholarship concerning the role of post-revolutionary generation in the development of American national identity. Finally, Skaggs explores in greater detail than anyone before the controversy over the conduct of his Lake Erie second, Jesse Duncan Elliott, that raged on for over a quarter century after Perry's death in 1819.
