Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Curtail'd Memoir of Incidents and Occurrences: In the Life of John Surman Carden, Vice Admiral in the British Navy The naval officer whose autobiography is contained in these pages is not one of the members of his profession whose names are familiar to the reading public in general. By the much more limited circle of students of naval history he may indeed be remembered, but for a very painful incident in his career. In the opening stages of the war of 1812-14 against the United States it fell to the lot of more than one commander of a British frigate to undergo the humiliation of hauling down the Union Jack after an action against a single ship. Among this ill-fated band John Surman Carden finds a place. The capture of H.M.'s frigate Macedonian by the much larger and more heavily-gunned United States was not in itself discreditable either to the commander or the crew of the British man-of-war. The Macedonian succumbed to superior force after a gallant fight, after incurring very considerable losses and only when the almost complete destruction of her masts and rigging had rendered her incapable of movement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the oceanic war rather than on the war in the Great Lakes, this study charts the War of 1812 from the perspectives of the two opposing navies at sea, one the largest navies in the world, the other a small, upstart navy just three decades old. While American naval leadership searched for a means of contesting Britain’s naval dominance, the English sought to destroy the U.S. Navy and protect its oceanic highways. Instead of describing battles between opposing warships, Kevin McCranie evaluates entire cruises by American and British men-of-war, noting both successes and failures and how they translated into broader strategies. In the process, his study becomes a history of how the two navies fought the oceanic war, linking high-level governmental decisions about strategy to the operational use of fleets in the Atlantic and Caribbean and from the south Pacific to the Indian Ocean. This comprehensive work offers a balanced appraisal of the sea war, taking into account the strategic considerations of both sides and how the leadership from each side assessed, planned, and implemented operational concepts. It draws on a wealth of British and American archival sources to help the reader understand strategic imperatives and the correlation between these imperatives and why the oceanic war was conducted in the manner it was. All American warships cruises, not just those that resulted in battles, are covered, but the author’s action-packed accounts of battles hold special appeal.

Book excerpt: In Perilous Fight, Stephen Budiansky tells the rousing story of the U.S. Navy during the War of 1812, when an upstart American fleet fought off the legendary Royal Navy and established America as a world power for the first time. Through vivid re-creations of riveting and dramatic encounters at sea, Budiansky shows how this underdog coterie of seamen and their visionary secretary of the navy combined bravery and strategic brilliance to defeat the British, who had dominated the seas for more than two centuries. A gripping and essential hsitory, this is the military and political story of how the U.S. Navy became a permanent and essential part of the nation’s defense.
