Terms for the exchange of prisoners during the War of 1812

James Monroe, 14 May 1813

WAR OF 1812 — Cartel for the Exchange of Prisoners of War, between Great Britain, and the United States of America. Washington, 14 May 1813.



An American proposal for a system of prisoner exchange for the War of 1812, signed by Secretary of State James Monroe in type, was drafted to replace a more limited agreement made on 28 November 1812. Although never ratified formally by Great Britain, apparently these regulations, which sought equity in prisoner numbers and the assurance of humane treatment for all those incarcerated, became the de facto basis for future exchanges during the conflict. A clean and attractive copy.



Folio broadside, 571 x 376mm. (Very light wear to vertical folds on verso.)
