Naval Occurrences of the War of 1812: A Full and Correct Account of the Naval War Between Great Britain and the United States of America, 1812-1815 Tapa dura - 2004

de William James; Introduction by Andrew Lambert


Información de la editorial

English lawyer and historian William James wrote this book in 1817 to counter what he considered the bombastic, patriotic, and false version of the war put forward by American authors. To free the war from "American dross," James used his legal mind to pick through a wealth of evidence and came to the conclusion that "no American ship of war has, after all, captured a British ship of the same force." Many of the work's more controversial and vociferous passages were deleted or toned down for his six-volume history of the Royal Navy published in 1826, but this fully reset classic--which includes more than one hundred contemporary official documents--allows readers to appreciate the full force of James's original arguments.

Annapolis, Maryland, U.S.A.: Naval Inst Pr, 2004. New book, 408 pages, slight shelf wear to cover. This contraversial book was first published in 1817 in response to the exaggerated and false accounts then circulating in America and Britain regarding the apparent recent successes of the United States Navy over the Royal Navy in supposedly equal combats. William James applied himself to assembling the facts and proved that, despite the 'powder puff' history of American writers - 'no American ship of war has, after all, captured a British ship of war, of the same force; but that the reverse has occured, and might have occured again, and again, had the Americans been willing to fight, as they are still to boast.' The distinguished naval historian Andrew Lambert here presents this key text whole with a new introduction, while the appendices, which contain a wealth of correspondence and eyewitness accounts of the many famous actions of the ware, are reproduced in full. Hard Cover. As… Leer más
