CIVIL WAR OF 1812, THE(I***N=9781400042654) mobi 下载 网盘 caj lrf pdf txt 阿里云

　　In this deeply researched and clearly written book, the

Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Alan Taylor tells the riveting

story of a war that redefined North America. During the early

nineteenth century, Brit*** and Americans renewed their struggle

over the legacy of the American Revolution. Soldiers, immigrants,

settlers, and Indians fought in a northern borderland to determine

the fate of a continent. Would revolutionary republicanism sweep

the British from Ca***? O***ould the British empire contain,

divide, and ruin the shaky American republic?

In a world of double identities, slippery allegiances, and porous

boundaries, the leaders of the republic and of the empire struggled

to control their own diverse peoples. The border divided

Americans—former Loyalists and Patriots—who fought on both sides in

the new war, as did native peoples defending their homelands.

Serving in both armies, Irish immigrants battled one another,

reaping charges of rebellion and treason. And dissident Americans

flirted with secession while aiding the British as smugglers and

spies.

During the war, both sides struggled to sustain armies in a

northern land of immense forests, vast lakes, and stark seasonal

swings in the weather. In that environment, many soldiers panicked

as they fought their own vivid imaginati***, which cast Indians as

bloodthirsty savages. After fighting each other to a standstill,

the Americans and the British concluded that they could safely

share the continent along a border that favored the United States

at the expense of Canadians and Indians. Both sides then celebrated

victory by f***etting their losses and by betraying the native

peoples.

A vivid narrative of an often brutal (and sometimes comic) war

that reveals much about the tangled origins of the United States

and Ca***.
