Description
[War of 1812]. Salem Gazette Newspaper. Volume 27, No. 26. Four pages, 11.25" x 18.5", Salem [Massachusetts], March 30, 1813. This edition features an article supporting Caleb Strong in the upcoming Massachusetts gubernatorial election. An article on page two denounces acts of "impressments" by the British government, who would capture American ships and force their crew to serve in the British navy, which was a leading cause of the War of 1812. Foreign news includes a report of Russian troops entering Prussia during the Franco-Prussian conflict. Period ads are located in the back. Heavily chipped edges and overall toning. Fire damage to the top edge does not affect the text.Auction Info
