" We have met the enemy and they are ours.” Commodore Perry

The battle begins!

The lake is 9,940 square miles with a length of 241 miles. It has an average depth of 62 feet. Lake Erie also has a shoreline of 2,726 miles.

The battle took place on September 10, It was fought during the war of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry was the American’s leader in the battle.

His mission was to gain navel superiority on the lake. This would allow the Americans to control the British weapon supply. The Americans had nine small ships. The two main ships were the Niagara and the Lawrence. The British only had six vessels but they were from the prestigious royal navy.

The crew on the Lawrence led the fight until the ship was disabled and most of them were killed or wounded. The ship was carrying Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry who was transferred by boat to the unharmed Niagara when the Lawrence was disabled. He then broke the British battle lines. In the end, the Americans defeated the British, captured their ships and regained control of Lake Erie
