Research

The War of 1812 and its naval encounters play an important role in the novel. So I spent a great weekend in Sault Ste. Marie. They had an 1812 encampment and tall ships from that period. The Niagara, the Pride of Baltimore II, and the Lynx represented the sailing ships of that time. The Baltimore Clippers represented privateers and the Niagara represented a great lakes war ship.
