Book Description
Excerpt from Notes on the War in the South: With Biographical Sketches of the Lives of Montgomery, Jackson, Sevier, the Late Gov; Claiborne, and Others The following Notes were written while the war was going on. They are now published without alteration. Had they been written after the war, the stile and manner of the remarks would have been different: as they are, they present the feelings of the day to the reader; and in that view, perhaps, are valuable. Some few of the numbers were published while the war continued; and were erroneously ascribed, in the upland country, to a writer with whom the author would blush to be compared; for he feels his inferiority: but such was then the fact, in the neighbourhood in which the author now resides. The Life of William C. C. Claiborne has been lately added; and is now published at the request of many of that gentleman's political friends. The stile of this book will not stand the knife of criticism; but the feelings under the influence of which it was produced, are above the reach even of malice.

The Greatest Fury
Author: William C Davis
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0399585249
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
“Davis’s accounts of small fights won by hot blood and cold steel are thrilling.”—The Wall Street Journal From master historian William C. Davis, the definitive story of the Battle of New Orleans, the fight that decided the ultimate fate not only of the War of 1812 but the future course of the fledgling American republic It was a battle that could not be won. Outnumbered farmers, merchants, backwoodsmen, smugglers, slaves, and Choctaw Indians, many of them unarmed, were up against the cream of the British army, professional soldiers who had defeated the great Napoleon and set Washington, D.C., ablaze. At stake was nothing less than the future of the vast American heartland, from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, as the ragtag American forces fought to hold New Orleans, the gateway of the Mississippi River and an inland empire. Tipping the balance of power in the New World, this single battle irrevocably shifted the young republic's political and cultural center of gravity and kept the British from ever regaining dominance in North America. In this gripping, comprehensive study of the Battle of New Orleans, William C. Davis examines the key players and strategy of King George's Red Coats and Andrew Jackson's makeshift "army." A master historian, he expertly weaves together narratives of personal motivation and geopolitical implications that make this battle one of the most impactful ever fought on American soil.
