Oct 13, 1812:
Sir Isaac Brock saves Canada
During the War of 1812, British and Indian forces under Sir Isaac
Brock defeat Americans under General Stephen Van Rensselaer at
the Battle of Queenstown Heights, on the Niagara frontier in
Ontario, Canada. The British victory, in which more than 1,000
U.S. troops were killed, wounded, or captured, effectively ended
any further U.S. invasion of Canada. Sir Isaac Brock, Britain's
most talented general in the war, was killed during the battle.
