Download or read book What So Proudly We Hailed written by Pietro S. Nivola and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With distrust between the political parties running deep and Congress divided, the government of the United States goes to war. The war is waged without adequately preparing the means to finance it or readying suitable contingency plans to contend with its unanticipated complications. The executive branch suffers from managerial confusion and in-fighting. The military invades a foreign country, expecting to be greeted as liberators, but encounters stiff, unwelcome resistance. The conflict drags on longer than predicted. It ends rather inconclusively—or so it seems in its aftermath. Sound familiar? This all happened two hundred years ago. What So Proudly We Hailed looks at the War of 1812 in part through the lens of today's America. On the bicentennial of that formative yet largely forgotten period in U.S. history, this provocative book asks: What did Americans learn—and not learn—from the experience? What instructive parallels and distinctions can be drawn with more recent events? How did it shape the nation? Exploring issues ranging from party politics to sectional schisms, distant naval battles to the burning of Washington, and citizens' civil liberties to the fate of Native Americans caught in the struggle, these essays speak to the complexity and unpredictability of a war that many assumed would be brief and straightforward. What emerges is a revealing perspective on a problematic "war of choice"—the nation's first, but one with intriguing implications for others, including at least one in the present century. Although the War of 1812 may have faded from modern memory, the conflict left important legacies, both in its immediate wake and in later years. In its own time, the war was transformative. To this day, however, some of the fundamental challenges that confronted U.S. policymakers two centuries ago still resonate. How much should a free society regularly invest in national defense? Should the expense be defrayed throu

Download or read book The War of 1812 written by Keri M. Wolf and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In certain respects, the War of 1812 was a small war fought between two navies' old ships and inexperienced armies, the United States and Canadian armies. "It featured a tit-for-tat, "you burned our capital, so we'll burn yours," and a legendary battle unknowingly fought after the signing of a peace treaty." After two hundred years of American history, the War of 1812 should stand out as the coming of age of a nation. Although the War of 1812 does not rank as one of America's most significant wars, it should not be overlooked in American high school history textbooks. The purpose of this thesis is to expose the important values of the events prior to the beginning of the War of 1812 that are often not in American high school history textbooks. I reviewed the four most popular American high school history textbooks recommended by the American Textbook Council. My research exposes various myths about this war, including its reputation as the second war of independence for America. Also, a case study will be presented focusing on the Siege of Fort Meigs, a battle unknown to the general public, and not mentioned in any high school American history textbook. The case study will examine the eight days of the battle, its important role in the War of 1812, and why it should be included in high school history textbooks.
Download or read book Benjamin Elliott Jones A Kentucky Militiaman In The Second War Of America s Independence 1812 1815 written by Gary C Cole and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-08-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some twenty-nine years after Great Britain recognized the independence of its former colonies, the United States declared war on Great Britain on 18 June 1812 and more that 458,000 militiamen would ultimately serve in the U.S. forces during that war which would be fought on the high seas, the Atlantic seaboard, the Great Lakes, Chesapeake Bay, the Canadian border, throughout the U.S. Northwest Territory, and in the Southern Frontier of the Gulf South. U.S. Brigadier General William Hull invaded Upper Canada soon after the war began, but was forced to surrender Fort Detroit, the surrounding village of some 700 settlers, and the entire Army of the Northwest on 16 August 1812. Eight days after the fall of Fort Detroit, a militia company was formed in Wayne County, Kentucky to fight the British and their Indian allies. At the call for volunteers, Benjamin Elliott Jones volunteered to serve six months as a Private in Captain Micah Taul's Company, Seventh Regiment, Kentucky Militia and was eager to fight the British and their Indian allies in what many considered to be the Second War of America's Independence. The story of Benjamin Elliott Jones' military service with Micah Taul's Company is a story of seemingly endless marching and searching for an opportunity to engage the British and their Indian allies in battle-an opportunity that never came. When the term of service for the militiamen in Taul's Company ended, they returned home and were treated as heroes even though they never met the British and their Indian allies in battle. Benjamin spent the rest of the war in Monticello struggling to follow the war's progress. He eagerly sought news about the battles fought and celebrated the victories won and agonized over the defeats suffered. Benjamin celebrated the end of the war in February 1815 and remembered with pride his role in that war-how he fought with Revolutionary War Veterans and the sons of such Veterans in the Second War of America's Independence. Some three years after the war ended, Benjamin left Wayne County, Kentucky and migrated 255 miles south to Alabama and settled in Lawrence County. He later moved to Fayette County and was living there when Alabama seceded from the Union on 11 January 1861; he was living there when the Confederacy was formed at Montgomery, Alabama in February; and he was living there when the great war for Southern Independence began on 12 April 1861. He saw his family experience the hardships and horrors of a nation at war with itself and struggled with his family's allegiance to both sides of the conflict. For the rest of his life, he sought news about the war's progress just as he had followed the progress of America's Second War of Independence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defending a New Nation, 1783-1811, the first volume of the "U.S. Army Campaigns of the War of 1812" series, tells the story of several military campaigns against Indians in the Northwest Territory, the Army's role in suppressing the Whiskey Rebellion (1794), the Quasi-War with France and confrontations with Spain, the influence of Jeffersonian politics on the Army's structure, and the Lewis and Clark expedition. From the end of the Revolutionary War in 1783 to the beginning of the War of 1812, the nascent United States Army encountered significant challenges, both within its own ranks and in the field. The Army faced hostile American Indians in the west, domestic insurrections over taxation, threats of war from European powers, organizational changes, and budgetary constraints. It was also a time of growth and exploration, during which Army officers led expeditions to America's west coast and founded a military academy.
