A nation on edge. Shores braced for conflict. In the shadow of the War of 1812, Massachusetts faced the looming threat of invasion, and the call to arms echoed across New England. Records Of The Massachusetts Volunteer Militia Called Out By The Governor Of Massachusetts To Suppress A Threatened Invasion During The War Of 1812-14, compiled by John Baker, stands as an essential window into this turbulent era - a meticulous record of the men who answered that call, and the state's urgent coastal defence preparations. This authoritative volume presents the complete militia roster, offering an unparalleled resource for military history research and genealogy reference alike. Each muster roll captures the names, units, and service details of the Massachusetts volunteer militia, as mobilised and documented by state government reports. More than just a catalogue of names, these historical military records illuminate the collective resolve of communities defending the New England homefront, revealing the lived reality of early American service records at a time when the nation's fate hung in the balance. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For anyone drawn to the Massachusetts War of 1812, the legacy of state militias, or the untold stories of ordinary citizens thrust into extraordinary circumstances, Baker's work is both a cultural treasure and a practical guide. With its blend of documentary rigour and human insight, it belongs on the shelf of every classic-literature collector, genealogist, and student of American military history.
