The Naval War of 1812

Altering the route of U.S. military history, The Naval War of 1812 intrepidly contested previous accounts of the war. Controversial yet scholarly sound, it has remained the definitive book on the subject since Theodore Roosevelt published it when he was only twenty-three years old. Its forceful narrative resuscitated interest in the war in 1882 and will do the same today.Read all the great works by Theodore Roosevelt:Presidential Addresses and State PapersAmerican IdealsHistory as LiteratureOliver CromwellWinning of the WestThe Rough RidersFear God and Take Your Own PartHunting the Grisly and Other SketchesHunting Trip of a RanchmanThe Naval War of 1812The Roosevelt BookThe Strenuous LifeThe Wilderness HunterAlso read his biography Theodore Roosevelt by William Roscoe ThayerIf you enjoy Theodore Roosevelt’s hunting books, you may also enjoy The Happy Hunting Grounds by his son Kermit Roosevelt
