About this book
The War With the United States: A Chronicle of 1812 is by William Wood. The contents list gives, among others, the chapter titles Opposing Claims and Opposing Forces. The text says Jefferson said that British policy was so perverse that, when he wished to forecast the British line of action on any particular point, he would first consider what it ought to be and then infer the opposite.
Wool hoists the Stars and Stripes over the fiercely disputed gun. The text says that, with twenty-four guns in action and the heart of the whole defence known to be lying dead in Queenston, an American victory seemed to be so well assured. The text asks, "Did no other cause than mistaken judgment affect Prevost that fatal morning?"
