The Maine that Never Was: British Plans for Maine, 1812-15

Join MDI Historical Society Collection Manager and Professor of History and Political Science, Dr. Patrick Callaway, for an online talk through the University of Maine, Presque Isle. Dr. Callaway will discuss the War of 1812 in Maine, and the de facto truce Maine enjoyed with the British for the first two years of the war. This changed in 1814 as a British force recaptured Castine and plotted to incorporate all of eastern Maine into British North America.
