The Battle of Mackinac Island (pronounced Mackinaw) was a British victory in the War of 1812. Before the war, Fort Mackinac had been an important American trading post in the straits between Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. It was important for its influence and control over the Native American tribes in the area, which was sometimes referred to in historical documents as "Michilimackinac".

  • La seconde bataille de l'île Mackinac s'est déroulée en 1814 sur l'île Mackinac aux États-Unis durant la guerre anglo-américaine de 1812 et s'est traduite par une victoire britannique sur les troupes américaines. Ce secteur était stratégique pour le commerce des fourrures. Les Britanniques avaient conquis l'île en 1812 lors d'une première bataille. Ils avaient ainsi pris possession du fort Mackinac et avaient rapidement complété les défenses de celui-ci en construisant à proximité le fort George. (fr)
