| In this revised and expanded edition of
The War of 1812: The War That Both Sides Won, author Wesley B. Turner
provides an interesting and informative overview of a crucial period in North
American history. The author asserts that the real significance of the series
of skirmishes that collectively made up the war between 1812 and 1814 is the
enormous impact they have had on Canadian and American views of themselves and
each other. The author provides a contemporary look at the period and has
included new insights from recent research to provide fuller explorations of
campaigns, battles, the navel contest on the Great Lakes, and personnel. An
expanded bibliography and an appendix on weaponry are also
included. Wesley B. Turner earned his B.A. and M.A. from the University of Toronto and a Ph.D. from Duke University. He taught history in high schools and at Brock University for thirty-one years before retiring. His previous books include. Turner lives in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.
