Through weapons and clothing, we’ll learn about how Michigan citizens and soldiers had to find their own ways to prepare for combat. This presentation will also take a look at the unique military units recruited from Michigan’s frontier population, the battles fought within Michigan, and even a story about a Michigan unit that took up arms for the British!
