Title: A Brit's view
Product review: A prospective reader should undersatand that this work is from a Brit's point of view -- complete with an unnecessary telling of which officers are related to whom and descriptions and drawings of British uniforms. Approximately 85 per cent of the book deals with the English side of events. Further, if you wish to read about the Battle of New Orleans, you should skip almost the first half of the book. (I don't suppose I could ask for a partial refund.) Finally, the author's view is that except for an unfortunate series of events the British would certainly have won the battle and seized New Orleans -- ignoring the fact that the American victory was absolute.
