Introduction
The
following study focuses on the city of Detroit from 1805 until 1812. This period
was bookended by dual disasters: first, a devastating fire that destroyed
nearly the entire town, and the second, the War of 1812 which saw Detroit at
the center of a several campaigns and the scene of a humiliating defeat for the
United States. The period between these calamities has often been overlooked or
glossed over by historians, who have seen these seven years as little more than
a lead up to war, rather than a transitional period in the city’s history and a
unique chapter in the territorial expansion of the United States in the early
nineteenth century.
