Description
Initially British officials were reluctant to accept the offers of loyal subjects to form fighting units but eventually the potential of a Provincial corps was realized.
Yet they never received the whole-hearted support of the British regular army and this was a factor in their evental defeat.
Nonetheless the Provincial Corps served with distinction - even fighting against the Spanish in Nicaragua and the Bahamas - and some remained in service for several more years by relocating to Canada.
This book examines their experiences in this continental conflict and details their uniforms and equipment.
