Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Battle of Lake Erie, which was fought near Put-in-Bay, Ohio on 10 September 1813, is ingrained in American history. This battle was not the only naval battle that was fought on the Upper Great Lakes during the War of 1812, but it is the most famous of these battles. The U.S. Navy did not withdraw from Lake Erie Station after the battle, but continued to protect America's interests on the Upper Great Lakes until 1825 when the Lake Erie Station at Erie, Pennsylvania was permanently closed. Approximately 1,336 men serves in this squadron between 1813 and 1825. The squadron was not only made up of men from the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps, but also from volunteers form the U.S. Army and the militia forces of Kentucky, Ohio, New York, and Pennsylvania. At least sixty African Americans and one Native American served in the squadron. The 'lost' muster rolls of the men who served during the Battle of Lake Erie on 10 September 1813 have been recreated in this work by using a variety of sources. These sources include the muster rolls from the ships and naval stations that sent men to Lake Erie, from U.S. Army and militia muster rolls, from the prize list a causality (sic) list from this battle, from the British Admiralty's American prisoner of war records, and from naval books and county histories. The primary focus of this book is to identify the men who served at the Lake Erie Station, and not to present the readers a complete history of the battles and the ships. The secondary focus is to dispel the many myths and legends associated with the Battle of Lake Erie. The book is genealogical in nature in order to help researchers in discovering their ancestor's naval participation on the Upper Great Lakes during and after the War of 1812."--Page 4 of cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On September 10, 1813, the hot, still air that hung over Lake Erie was broken by the sounds of sharp conflict. Led by Oliver Hazard Perry, the American fleet met the British, and though they sustained heavy losses, Perry and his men achieved one of the most stunning victories in the War of 1812. Author Walter Rybka traces the Lake Erie Campaign from the struggle to build the fleet in Erie, Pennsylvania, during the dead of winter and the conflict between rival egos of Perry and his second in command, Jesse Duncan Elliott, through the exceptionally bloody battle that was the first U.S. victory in a fleet action. With the singular perspective of having sailed the reconstructed U.S. brig Niagara for over twenty years, Rybka brings the knowledge of a shipmaster to the story of the Lake Erie Campaign and the culminating Battle of Lake Erie.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Battle of Lake Erie: September 10, 1813 and Reminiscences of the Flagships "Lawrence" And "Niagara" In offering this pamphlet to the public, it may be deemed necessary to offer some apology. There have been many accounts of Perry's Victory, Sept. 10th, 1813, published. Yet in consequence of the unfortunate feud existing between Perry and Elliott and their friends, the accounts partook somewhat of an ex parte character. This is not a correct way to hand down passing events to posterity. In writing history, facts should be given as nearly as possible, not fiction. My father, Sailing Master Daniel Dobbins, was a pioneer in the construction of the squadron, and served actively upon the upper lakes during the war. From conversations during his lifetime, as also memoranda and other papers left by him - in connection with the accounts given by McKenzie, Cooper and Lossing, I have compiled this little book. I hope the reader will excuse the commonplace style of composition, as it is the effort of an illiterate sailor.
