An excellent indepth account of the events and campaigns leading up to the battle. Then to the battle of Queenstown Heights itself .The result was a humiliating defeat for the Americans yet it was also tragic on the British and Canadian side with the death of Issac Brock. It has also been unfairly presented as Brock's victory ignoring two important people, John Nortorn a real life Sharpe who was an ex private in the British army and was one of the best Light Infantry leaders in the war and who saved the day with a small band of Indians which held the entire American army in position, and the rather maligned Roger Sheaffe whose no nonsence tactics produced the American surrender and who was the real victor of the day.
