    I enjoy looking at historical paintings and wondering what it would have been like at that particular place and time. And I can tell that you do too!😃 This Canadian thanks you for your splendid videos. 👍

    Very good, sir ! I have researched this battle when I was on the island. Such a shame about the golf course.

    Thank you for this. I visited Mackinac Island some years ago and regrettably, was not aware of the battle which took place. One day I will have to return. By the way, the rank of lieutenant or in this case, lieutenant colonel, is actually pronounced "left tenant" rahter than "loo tenant" in the British army.

    Who would have figured that one of the first of the countless islands stormed by the United States Marine Corps was MACKINAC ISLAND?

    Can someone tell me the price for the book Through an Officer’s Eyes: The Photo Album of Edward B. Pratt, U.S. Army, 1873-1902? It is missing the price. Or update the site with the price. Thanks.
