Historians there only study themselves.

I was aware of the Battle of the Beaver Dams, and the role of a woman in
it, but, alas, I did have to Google Secord's name. *By the way, the War

Yes, it is. Every time I meet an American Citizen, MOST dont know ****
about History. They only seem to know about American History.
A great relative of mine helped carry Brocks body off the field at the
Battle of Queenston Heights.He was also a member of Butlers Rangers.
