Book History of the War of 1812 Betwen Great Britain and the United States of America  Classic Reprint

Download or read book History of the War of 1812 Betwen Great Britain and the United States of America Classic Reprint written by James Hannay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the War of 1812 Betwen Great Britain and the United States of America This book has been written for the purpose Of placing before the people of Canada, in a single volume, the story Of the defence Of our country from foreign invasion during the last war between Great Britain and the United States of America. As this defence could not have been successful but for the hearty cooperation of our ancestors, the people of Canada of that day, this war ought to be regarded as Canada's first and greatest contribution to the work of em pire building, for the fervent loyalty, which a few years ago, sent so many of the sons of Canada to fight the battles of Great Britain in South Africa, received its first illustration on the battlefields of the War of 1812. I have not thought it necessary to burden the pages of this book with foot notes and references to authorities, because the Official sources of our knowledge of the war are so few in number as to render such references unnecessary. For the movements of the armies, the numbers of the British troops engaged, and the losses of the latter, I have relied on the British official despatches. For the numbers Of the American armies and their losses, I have accepted the Ameri can Official despatches, except where they were manifestly in error.

The latter gives the American view of the cruises and battles; but it is much less of an authority than James's, both because it is written without great regard for exact ness, and because all figures for the American side need to be supplied from Lieutenant (now Admiral) George E. Emmons's statistical History of the United States Navy, which is the third of the Works in question. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-27 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

For the numbers of the American armies and their losses, I have accepted the American official despatches, except where they were manifestly in error. No doubt it will be said by some critics that in this book I have been too severe on the Americans who invaded our country, burnt our towns, ravaged our fields, slaughtered our people and tried to place us under a foreign flag. But I maintain that any Canadian author has a right to challenge the motives and the conduct of the men who did these things, and I see no reason why any American of the present day should feel offended at reflections on the actions of men who lived ninety years ago. While endeavouring to present an absolutely truthful narrative of the War of 1812, I have not felt it necessary to refrain from criticizing the conduct of the men who were responsible for the contest or who took part in it.

This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wars Between England and America The purpose of this volume is to Show how social, economic and political causes led to a period of almost continuous antagonism between England and the American com munities from 1763 to the ratification of the Treaty of Ghent in 1815. The war of Ameri can Independence, 1775 - 1783, and the war of 1812 - 1815 give their names to the book, not because of their military or naval im portance, but because they mark, in each case, the outcome of successive years of un availing efforts on the part of each country to avoid bloodshed. With this aim in view, no more detailed study of the internal po litical history or institutions of either country can be included than is necessary to account for different political habits, nor can the events of diplomatic history be developed beyond What is called for to explain persist.
