摘要

The Library of America could not have chosen a more knowledgeable scholar to edit its volume of writings from the War of 1812 than Donald R. Hickey, professor of history at Wayne State College. Not only is he the author of one of the standard general histories of the war, as well as several other works on the era, but he has also made himself a one-man clearinghouse of information about conferences, discussions, events, exhibitions, and publications relating to the war and its bicentenary. Hickey has collected a judicious selection of documents covering the course of the war on land and at sea, in the halls of Congress, and in the press. The 141 contemporary texts by 89 authors, including President James Madison and his cabinet officers, British political leaders, British and American army and navy officers, and Native American leaders, also portray the war as experienced by foot soldiers and drummer boys, enlisted sailors, and civilians.
