Story4 out of 5 stars 608
At the outbreak of the War of 1812, America's prospects looked dismal. It was clear that the primary battlefield would be the open ocean but America's war fleet, only 20 ships strong, faced a practiced British navy of more than a thousand men-of-war. Still, through a combination of nautical deftness and sheer bravado, the American navy managed to take the fight to the British and turn the tide of the war.

This is a fairly detailed description of battles. Nice to know the story of our Navy, but I found it hard to tell who was British and who was American in some parts.
