This edition of Theodore Roosevelt's thorough and detailed work on
the naval engagements in the War of 1812 includes all of his
original tables, lists, diagrams, appendices and notes. As the
future President's first book, The Naval War of 1812 shines as a
fine example of military history. Commonly overlooked by historians
to this day, the 1812 war's naval engagements form a seldom
discussed history. Owing to Theodore Roosevelt's accessible style
of writing, what might otherwise be a dry or ponderous subject is
made exciting, enlightening and accessible. Published in 1882, two
years after Theodore Roosevelt had graduated from Harvard
University, this book is the result of its author seeking a
challenge for his intellect and research capacities. Combing
archives for British and American documents, Roosevelt strove for
neutrality, presenting the facts and outcomes of each battle with
the impartiality of a professional historian.
