The United States Army : 1812-1815 (Men-At-Arms Series, 345) ReviewIf it wasn't for the Star-Spangled Banner, most Americans would probably lump the War of 1812 into the same bin of forgotten wars with the Mexican War and Spanish-American War. Even then, I'm sure they wouldn't be able to tell you a darn thing about any of the details.
This book gives a through overview to the United States Army as it progressed from 1812 through 1815. America had this horrible habit in its early years (and even up until World War II) of cutting its military in peace time and then getting itself into wars unprepared. What starts out as a slightly disorganized army in 1812 turns into an army that would route troops that served with Wellington in Europe.
Probably the strength of this book is that the author doesn't try to be all things to all people. Instead of giving an overview of all the branches or even both sides of the conflict as was done in Osprey's earlier work on the subject, it is very specific and therefore a good reference for such a short book. The prints are interesting to look at and the photos of extant uniforms and equipment are priceless.The United States Army : 1812-1815 (Men-At-Arms Series, 345) Overview
