About this book

"Most histories of the War of 1812 focus on one or two aspects of the war -- usually the military campaigns and naval engagements. In this new general history, based on twenty years of research in a broad range of sources, Donald Hickey explores the military, political, diplomatic, economic, social, and financial history of our second war with Great Britain"--Inside cover.
