From master historian William C. Davis, the definitive story of the Battle of New Orleans, the fight that decided the ultimate fate not only of the War of 1812 but the future course of the fledgling American republic.
It was a battle most thought could not be won. Outnumbered farmers, merchants, backwoodsmen, smugglers, slaves, and Choctaw Indians, many of them unarmed, were up against the cream of the British army, professional soldiers who had defeated the great Napoleon and set Washington, D.C., ablaze. At stake was nothing less than the future of the vast American heartland, from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, as the ragtag American forces fought to hold New Orleans, the gateway of the Mississippi River and an inland empire.
Tipping the balance of power in the New World, this single battle irrevocably shifted the young republic’s political and cultural center of gravity and kept the British from ever regaining dominance in North America. In this gripping, comprehensive study of the Battle of New Orleans, William C. Davis examines the key players and strategy of King George’s Red Coats and Andrew Jackson’s makeshift “army.” A master historian, he expertly weaves together narratives of personal motivation and geopolitical implications that make this battle one of the most impactful ever fought on American soil.

The war was already settled, a peace had been signed in Europe. Jackson had been informed by Washington but his hatred of the English compelled him to continue the killing as long as he possibly could. Jackson was a loathsome murderer, already having killed his wife’s first husband in an uneven duel. (Military veteran /v shopkeeper, pretty fair eh!). He would go on to carry out a racist genocide against the Indians of western Georgia.

A great book.
The British knew that controlling New Orleans would mean they would control the mid-west portion of North America. That is why they made a move for New Orleans and why Jackson was sent to prevent it.
The battle for New Orleans is one of the most overlooked events in United States history.
The book is well written and worthy of purchase.
Thanks rmoor.
