Book Description
This volume has been designated the Massachusetts Volunteer Milita in the War of 1812. This was done in error, because by law the active militia of Massachusetts at the present day is so designated. During the War of 1812-14 the militia was simply called Massachusetts Militia, and it should have been so termed in this volume.

The Richardson Light Guard of Wakefield, Massachusetts
Author: Barry M. Stentiford
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476602859
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
This book traces the history of the Richardson Light Guard of Wakefield, Massachusetts, from its origins in 1851 until its end in 1975. What had been an institution of community members and local elites passed to town, then state, and finally federal government. During the same period, Wakefield evolved from an agrarian town to a manufacturing town and finally to a bedroom suburb, ending the practice of a handful of local elites ruling the town unchallenged. Though the rise of the National Guard was generally positive, for some militia companies, inclusion in the National Guard weakened vital bonds with their communities. In the 19th century, the Richardson Light Guard thrived under generous patrons, a supportive town, and a relatively wealthy state government. After becoming part of the National Guard in 1916, the links with its home community steadily weakened, finally breaking during World War II. After the war, the National Guard company had few links to Wakefield and was reorganized out of existence in 1975.

Pages : 326
Book Description
An entertaining, well-researched study details naval battles and coastal incursions through diaries and regional news articles on the War of 1812. New England was hard hit by the War of 1812 with Great Britain. The war severely injured the maritime and commercial economy and inflamed the difference in interests between the Northeast and the rest of the country, where agriculture was the mainstay. The author has combed sources near and far, bringing to life a drama that was international in scope? but so local in impact.
