British Army in North America with Don Graves

We were thrilled to continue to have these conversations with Don.This episode was one of two recorded on November 6th, 2025. It would be our last recording session with Don. We knew he was seriously ill and we were racing against time to work through the extensive episode list we had developed with Don. Unfortunately we ran out of time as he passed away shortly after these recordings.This episode compliments Episode 5 on the British Army with this one looking at more specifically in Canada during the War of 1812. Don Graves was a well known Canadian military historian who published his first work on a War of 1812 subject in the late 1970s and since that time has brought out five books on 1812 topics as well as three volumes of memoirs and edited a new edition of a classic history of the war. Don Graves has also produced 11 books or monograph on other topics of Canadian military history ranging from 1690 to 1945.
