This time around we're going earlier into the 19th century to find the Hottest Hottie in the War of 1812!
This hottie was chosen because with his broad shoulders, strong jaw, and red jacket, this 6'3" slab of man would've made Lydia and Kitty Bennett lose their shit if he'd ever happened into Meryton. The War of 1812 Hottie is Sir Isaac Brock!
But of course it is not only fictional characters of Jane Austen's that might find him attractive. He's empircially a good lookin' guy. Story goes that Chief Tecumseh declared "Now here is a man!" after meeting him. Damn straight, Tecumseh, damn straight.
Brock helped to defend the Canadian border from the invading American all while being totally hot. He joined the military at the age of only 15, and was a brigadier-general (yeah, I don't really know what that means) by the time the U.S. declared war against Britain... which was in 1812, surprisingly enough. He was knighted for his efforts during the war and was called the Hero of Upper Canada. And he died when he was 42 in 1812 in the battle of Queenston Heights. But you know what Debbie Harry said, "Die young, stay pretty." Oh, also, he didn't really like Canada all that much and really wanted to go back to Europe and fight Napoleon.
P.S. For those of you playing along at home, be sure to search for him as Sir Isaac Brock. Because if you just google Isaac Brock you end up with a lot of sites concerning the singer/guitarist of Modest Mouse.
