Summary
DescriptionDeath of General Pike at the Battle of York.jpg |
English: An 1839 engraving of the death of American brigadier general Zebulon Pike at the Battle of York near York, Upper Canada (present day Toronto) on 27 April 1813. Pike was killed by debris from the explosion of a powder magazine. This scene shown in this American print of 1839 bears little resemblance to the actual 1813 fortifications at York, while the town itself was actually out of sight further to the east.
