This book is a narrative history of the many dimensions of the War
of 1812 - social, diplomatic, military and political - which places
the war's origins and conduct in transatlantic perspective. The
events of 1812-15 were shaped by the larger crisis of the
Napoleonic Wars in Europe. In synthesizing and reinterpreting
scholarship on the war, Professor J. C. A. Stagg focuses on the war
as a continental event, highlighting its centrality to Canadian
nationalism and state development. The book introduces the war to
students and general readers, concluding that it resulted in many
ways from an emerging nation-state trying to contend with the
effects of rival European nationalisms, both in Europe itself and
in the Atlantic world.
