Discusses smuggling during the War of 1812. Topics covered:<br />
<br />
* Relations between the United States and Upper Canada prior to the war's beginning, with trading regulations changing as tension increased between the two countries.<br />
* Americans being forced to only buy American-made products and to only sell their goods within the United States, due to a law passed in 1807.<br />
* The new trading laws being passed to prove the United States was strong and independent, and to create hardships for British colonists.<br />
* Hardships Americans faced because of the new trading laws, especially for farmers and shopkeepers along the border who found it easier and cheaper to trade with buyers in Upper Canada.<br />
* The increase in payment through smuggling once the war began, with the British willing to pay high prices for food to feed their troops.<br />
* Smuggling earning more income through the selling of potash, and the use of potash to make cloth and gunpowder in English factories.<br />
* The attempts to stop smuggling being difficult due to displeasure over the new trading laws, and the sympathy felt towards struggling farmers and the smugglers.<br />
* Jacob Jennings Brown, a businessman so well known for smuggling that he acquired the nickname "Potash Brown".<br />
