United States-History-War of 1812-Naval operations ؛ United States-History, Naval-To 1900
| | چکیده : | In this book Stephen Budiansky shows that, far from an indecisive and unnecessary conflict, as historians have long dismissed the War of 1812--this "forgotten war" had profound consequences that would change the course of naval warfare, America's place in the world, and the rules of international conflict forever. Drawing extensively on diaries, letters, and personal accounts from both sides, Budiansky re-creates the encounters at sea, the intimate hopes and fears of vainglorious captains and young seamen in search of adventure, and the behind-the-scenes political intrigue and maneuvering in Washington and London | | لینک ثابت رکورد: | ../opac/index.php?lvl=record_display&id=22120 | | زبان مدرک : | English زبان اصلی : English |
