The journal ran from July 1812 to September 1814, and was revived for three issues in February 1817. Signed on the title page by "H W Alamer." Bound volumes of Samuel Woolworth's periodical on the War of 1812, "Being a Faithful Record of the Transactions of the War between the United States of America and their Territories, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and the Dependencies thereof." Publication was suspended from 1814-1817 due to insufficient subscribers so that few complete copies exist. The second run (Feb. 1817) is disbound. Vol. III, nos. 13-15 (Feb. 1817) were printed by Charles N. Baldwin of New York.
