Sea Power in its Relations to the War of 1812. Volume 2
The second volume of Alfred Thayer Mahan's Sea Power in Its Relations to the War of 1812, published in 1905, carries the naval history from the winter of 1812-13 to the peace. It covers the single-ship actions of Constitution and Java and of Hornet and Peacock, the campaigns on Lake Ontario and Perry's victory on Lake Erie, the loss of the Chesapeake, the British blockade and raids along the seaboard, the burning of Washington, the defense of Baltimore, Macdonough's victory on Lake Champlain, the battle of New Orleans and the negotiations at Ghent. Mahan argues that a nation which had neglected its navy paid for it, and that the lakes and the blockade, not the frigate duels, decided the war.
