The U.S. Army in the War of 1812 Book Description

A history of the 19th century war with Britain, focusing on the operations of the Army rather than the historical causes or repercussions of the war. Representative topics include General Hull's campaign, the Battle of Frenchtown, the British Offensive in the West in 1813, the Creek War, Armstrong's New High Command, General Jackson's Gulf Campaign, and the Battle of Tohopeka. The author covers naval operations only where they are directly related to the land campaigns. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
