Description: The massive resource identifies 2,890 Maryland heroes who became casualties during the War of 1812. These soldiers were killed in battle, died of wounds or injuries, became prisoners of war, were missing in action or became sick or diseased during service. Many have detailed biographical data and references. Entries are listed alphabetically by surname. The amount of information given in each entry varies; however, entries typically include surname, given name, rank or occupation, illness or injury (if stated), cause and date of death (if applicable), and source of information. Entries may also contain any combination of the following: age, height, place of birth, place of service or work, date of enlistment, years served, date of discharge, place of discharge, name of heir (spouse or sibling or children), prisoner of war data, and much more. The “1812 Monuments to the Soldiers” follows the entries and gives detailed accounts, with photographs of many monuments to visit in Maryland dedicated to 1812 soldiers including Aquila Randall Monument, Armistead Statue Monument at Ft. McHenry, Armistead Monument at Federal Hill, Battle Monument, Battle Acre Park, Bladensburg Monument, Caulk’s Field Monument, Fort McHenry Wayside Marker, North Point Battlefield Park, Sam Smith Statue Monument, and Wells and McComas Monument. Also included is Battle of North Point—Americans Died, British Dead or Wounded in Maryland, and Additional statistics on the American and British dead complete this work. This is a great resource for any library especially if you wish to learn more about the soldiers who gave their all during this Second War of Independence as it has also been named. The sacrifices these men made to ensure our liberties are highlighted through the pages and descriptions of their sacrifices.
