The War of 1812

Rating:
Summary: disapointing account
Review: Unless you are looking for a very general study of the War of 1812, pass this book by. I was looking for an unbiased account to brush up on the facts of the conflict. However, the account is very biased towards the British and Canadians in particular. The US is made to look like aggressors and "imperialistic" in the eyes of this Canadian author. Very Disapointing for a historian.

Even the illustrations are sub-par. Maps are OK.
