Guide Book to the Historic Sites of the War of 1812

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
There have been guidebooks to military sites before, but no book has covered the War of 1812 in its entirety. Now for the first time, Dundurn Press can offer this guidebook to all of the major historic sites of the War of 1812, and some of the more obscure ones. In detailing these sites, Collins has included 385 historic sites and markers, twenty-seven maps, and forty-seven illustrations. The book includes a chronology of the war, and is a handy tool for both the traveller and the historian. This guide fills a gap in the canon of existing War of 1812 literature, and is a welcome addition to the collections of both the serious student of the war and the amateur historian.
