Frustrated Patriots - North Carolina and the War of 1812 (Paperback, New edition)

Although North Carolina provided its share of finances, supplies, and volunteers for the regular army and for the state militia, those who served found themselves ill-equipped, poorly fed, and stationed in unhealthful locations. The chief results of the war were injurious: state defense debts were never paid by the federal government, efforts at establishing industry were abortive, and the removal of the Indian menace in the West lured a number of young leaders to greener pastures so that the state became the Rip Van Winkle" state for several decades.
