Zusammenfassung:America's leading authority on the War of 1812 dispels the many misconceptions that distort our view of America's second war with Great Britain. Embracing military, naval, political, economic, and diplomatic analysis, Hickey looks carefully at how the war was fought between 1812 and 1815, and how it was remembered thereafter. He peels away fantasies and embellishments to explore why certain myths gained currency, and how they contributed to the way that the United States and Canada view themselves and each other.--From publisher description.
