Title: A detailed history of America's "second war of independence"
Review: The latest addition to the "Greenwood Guides to Historic events, 1500-1900" series, The War Of 1812 is collaboratively written by author David S. Heidler and historian Jeanne T. Heidler (Professor of History, United States Air Force Academy). The War Of 1812 is a meticulous and detailed history of America's "second war of independence" that is places the battles, events, personalities, and ramifications into a social and historical context. Timelines, biographies of major figures, excerpts of primary accounts, and a great deal more round out this informed and informative account that is a welcome and highly recommended addition to school and community library American History reference collections.
