Budiansky, Stephen
Perilous Fight
Budiansky takes a fresh look at the War of 1812, saying it changed the course of naval warfare, America's place in the world, and the rules of international conflict forever. Never again would the Great Powers challenge the young republic's sovereignty in the aftermath of the stunning performance of America's navy and privateers in sea battles that ranged across half the globe. Their brilliant hit-and-run tactics against a far mightier foe would pioneer concepts of 'asymmetric warfare' that would characterize the insurgency warfare of later centuries. Above all, the War of 1812 would be the making of the US Navy. Drawing extensively on diaries, letters, and personal accounts from both sides, Budiansky recreates the encounters at sea in bloody clashes of cannon fire and swordplay, and the behind-the-scenes political intrigue and maneuvering in Washington and London.
