Don Hickey & Jim Yaworsky: Battle of the Thames (Oct. 5, 1813)

Don Hickey is once again joined by Jim Yaworsky. Jim is a long time Windsor resident who has studied local history and also reenacted it as a member of the 41st Regiment.

In this follow-up episode we start with both armies on the morning of October 5th.

We examine the battle from multiple perspectives and look at its aftermath and legacy.

Referenced is a PowerPoint that looks at the experience of the 41st Regiment POWs from the battle and gives us a perspective on the functioning of prisoner cartels and exchanges.
