Box. But no, no, no. Im very happy and honored to be here with such a distinguished set of scholar and an even lovelier audience. Thank you so much to bill and to the White House Historical association, to the u. S. Capitol Historical Society and, of course, James Madisons mountpilyer for having me here. The slogan dont give up the ship, the figure of uncle sam, the star spangled banner, the proliferation of symbols that emerged from the war of 1812 constitutes a paradox. Though, as this conference demonstrates, much recent scholarship on the causes, conduct, and legacies of the war has produced fresh insights about the costs and gains of the war, even the combatants. At the time the treaty was signed, americans understood that peace gained them little and policy,

And most of them i think were built around either boston or philadelphia. In supporting the war, and particularly the naval war, did jobs ever come into any of the equations in 1812, or looking longer through American History, when did jobs become an issue of National Policy . All right. When did jobs start driving our defense policy . Yes. Not during this war. I dont see any evidence that federalists said, well, weve got to support expanding the navy because thats going to be jobs in our commercial ports where were often in a majority. Ive not seen that hint of that. And this is a rare war, in that the we really did bad economically during the war. Sometimes we do very well during a war, i think its more typical that the massive spending in the ploumt, world war ii being the best case probably, generates economic activity. But not in this war. And thats largely as

How to fight. Were eager to be on british as you know the United States naval warships. Opened the conflict with what should have been a threepronged offensive into what is now canada and a surge of war ships and privateers into the western they were fleeing to seek refuge during 1813, unlike the British Atlantic to cut britains economic lifelines. Deserter who anticipated a the canadian frontier became the better life in the republic, the main military theater and for three years heavily outnumbered former slave didnt want to go back to the republic. British regulars and canadian militia and warriors defended so they did not desert. As marines, they could be the border. Deployed to watch the white they had some troops into the sailors and pursue deserters. Canadian theater and they came from the west indies and not admiral coburn sought to replace from europe.

Killed or by their wounds. In other words, they died as a direct result of combat in the war.

They were simply a product of the very unhealthy nature of military camps, the inability to provide decent sanitation, these sorts of things, which diseases, if they got into an arm camp, they could go through and take a very heavy toll on life substantially more men died as a result of disease, sickness. And then theres a bit of colateral damage that occurs that millyisha die as a result of the british raids of the sort weve been talking about. We might estimate that 15,000, 16,000 americans died one way or another as a result of the war of 1812. The indians suffered i think proportionately higher percentage of lossesle we dont know precisely, because we dont have good figures for indian population, but of course the numbers that the ....

The occasion for this was that she received a request from Margaret Baird smith, the wife of the editor of the National Intelligencer and also writer and novelest, to supply smith with material for a bigragical sketch of mrs. Madison for the third volume of the portrait gallery of distinguished americans. Dolley seems to be ambivalent. She sent smith little about her origins and of that, some was intentionally incorrect. She was concerned about her privacy and that of her husband and she instructed her niece, mary cuts, not to give smith, quote, anything of importance in my own eyes. Dolley stalled, leaving smith z largely to write from her own memory. But in one particular matter, dolley mailed
