183544071London 1835. Good. Separated at folds edge worn and torn a few chips one affecting a few words at the end of about a dozen lines of text light soiling. 6 pp. with integral address. Folio. 10.5 x 16.5 inches. Manuscript with numerous corrections and additions concerning the failure of the British military in the War of 1812. In late 1835 then Colonel William Francis Patrick Napier 1785-1860 member of the British Army and a military historian gave speech at Bath which the Sunday Times reported claiming he had criticized the British soldiers in the War of 1812 as failing because they "stood as patriots and freemen on less firm and less elevated ground than the Americans themselves" which John Mitchell notes at the very beginning of this article published in the January 1836 issue of "United Service Journal and Naval and Military Service Magazine" pp. 84-92. Defending the soldiers Mitchell goes on to launch an attack on Napier's speech and the British command and their tactics. "The failure of the British troops at New Orleans was as complete as possible; but patriotism or want of patriotism had nothing to do with the business. The military policy of England guided by men ignorant alike of the strength and the weakness of armies swayed besides by the influence of philanthropic and economical patriots whose evil counsel fell like a death-bearing pestilence on the ranks of the army-shone out in all its poor and paltry littleness: in the constant striving to save farthings millions of treasure were wasted and thousands of gallant lives were remorselessly sacrificed. The valour everywhere exhibited by the troops the zeal ability high spirit and devotedness displayed by so many matchless officers the number of gallant blows struck and noble feats of arms performed- were not it must be allowed sufficient to counterbalance the folly ignorance and presumption that marked the official management of that most miserable war. But I repeat the fault was not with the troops" The failure is not just at New Orleans. "The British failed at Sacket's Harbour Platsburgh and New Orleans; to which for argument sake we will add Baltimore. At Sacket's Harbour and Platsburgh the British forces retired from phantom hosts and imaginary foes. At Baltimore something of the same kind happened." After a detailed analysis of the military's failures he ends his unrelenting attack: "But the soldiers of a great nation must know that they are equal to any contest. An American war like every war in which brave men are to be encountered has its difficulties; and it is only by looking those difficulties fairly in the face that they can be overcome. Had we listened to the liberal and patriotic despondency which so long represented us incapable of contending against the French we should at this moment have been crouching beneath the lash of Napoleon or his successor on the throne of the Grand Empire." Needless to say many jumped to the defense of Napier who wrote in his letter to the editor that the Sunday Times report of his speech was pure fiction and that he never criticized the troops; in fact he states he never mentioned the war at all. John Mitchell 1785-1859 was an army officer and writer who served in the West Indies in the Peninsular War and on diplomatic missions for Wellington. He wrote much on the defects of the British army tactics and a number of volumes including "The Fall of Napoleon" and "Biographies of Eminent Soldiers." Postmarked London December 22 1835. Addressed to Major Thomas Henry Shadwell Clerke who was editor of "The United Service Journal and Naval and Military Service Magazine." unknown books
