About this product

Product Information

Now marking its bicentennial, the War of 1812 remains the least understood of America's wars. Neither side gained a clear triumph, but in truth it was our second war of independence, settling once and for all that America would never again submit to Britain. It featured humiliating disasters--Washington was attacked, the White House burned--and stirring successes, like the Battle of Lake Erie, one of the greatest naval victory in American history. Here Hugh Howard, acclaimed for his vivid historical narratives, brings a forgotten conflict alive, and offers a vivid portrait of two key figures at its center, President James Madison and his charismatic, courageous first lady Dolley.

"Howard's descriptions, e.g., of the burning of Washington, are superb, as is his use of primary sources throughout. Highly recommended to all readers on this war's bicentennial." - Library Journal "An entertaining look at the forgotten war." - Military History Quarterly "It is as a work of military history the book excels. Howard's recountings of the naval battles are especially vividâ€¦A worthy look at a rite of passage making the nascent United States into a nation that, although far from a world power, would be here to stay."- Minneapolis Star-Tribune, "Howard's descriptions, e.g., of the burning of Washington, are superb, as is his use of primary sources throughout.
