Perkins, Samuel.
History of the political and military events of the late war
between the United States and Great Britain. i825..rg73.5 P43
"One of the best histories of the War of 1812. It narrates with sufficient
fulness the land and naval operations; brings out clearly the
points of controversy which led to the war, the national questions
involved and the effect on party spirit and the character of the
people. Although like all American histories of its period, it is
strongly partisan, it takes due recognition of the claims of both parties
to the conflict, and obviously aims to present the truth with judicial
impartiality." Larned's Literature of American history.
Porter, David Dixon.
Incidents and anecdotes of the Civil war. 1885 973-7 P835
"Nobody in the navy saw more of the Civil war than Admiral Porter,
and few equalled him in 'spinning yarns.' He has made a most
racy and entertaining book, full of the spirit and the incidents of the
time, and of the local color of passing events. Like most purely
personal recollections unchecked by careful comparison with contemporaneous
records, it must be used for historical purposes
with caution." Larned's Literature of American history.
Reed, John Calvin.
The brothers' war. 1905 973-7 R28
"He. . .works and writes as a part of the energetic new South...His
main thesis is that economic interest, not principle or derivation,
made two distinct and antagonistic peoples in the United States...
Mr. Reed discusses different periods and influences in the evolution
of the conflict." Nation, 1906.

"These invaluable memoranda record the observations of an eyewitness
of the Burgoyne campaign... She is frankly anti-American
in her sympathies, but her notes are pervaded by an admirable
temper, and a genuineness and directness of style which retain even
the general reader's interest." Larned's Literature of American
history.
