Dear Bernard

I’m just writing in as I was curious as to your thoughts on the Plattsburgh campaign controversy. Sir George Prevost had an Army of mainly Peninsular War Vetrans with Generals handpicked by Wellington himself. In the fallout of the campaign,  those Generals were furious with him retreating. They thought they could’ve won easily. While the Naval Commander Yeo blamed him for the Naval defeat on the Lake, saying he forced Downie into attacking. I just wondered what your thoughts were on the subject as I’d love to know

Regards

Geraint.

BTW if you’ve not read it I can recommend All There Glories Past by Donald E Graves which covers Plattsburgh and The Siege of Fort Erie
