What is The War of 1812: Writings from America's Second War of Independence (LOA #232) (Library of America) about?

A first-of-its-kind collection of letters, speeches, and other writings from the War of 1812 that provides a rich panorama of the conflicts that helped shape the future of the United States On June 18, 1812, the United States formally declared war for the first time. President James Madison's call to arms against Great Britain provoked outpourings of patriotic fervor and vigorous—some said treasonous—domestic opposition. Over the next three years the War of 1812 would prove as divisive as it was rich in nationalist myth-making: We have met the enemy, and he is ours... Don't give up the ship!... Oh, say can you see.... Here is the first comprehensive collection of eyewitness accounts in over a century of the conflict that shaped the future of a continent. Reflecting several generations of scholarly discoveries, it covers all the theaters of war, from frontier battles in Canada, Michigan, and New York to naval confrontations on the high seas and Great Lakes, from the burning of Washington to the defense of New Orleans. Here are 140 letters, memoirs, poems, songs, editorials, journal entries, and proclamations by more than 100 participants, both famous—Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson
