Описание книги

Presenting all six installments of Richard Feltoe’s series on the War of 1812, gathered together in an ebook bundle. Each book in this battlefield-based chronicle combines the best of modern historical research with extensive quotations from original official documents and personal letters to bring to life this crucial period of Canada’s early history. Throughout the authoritative series, historical images are counterpointed with modern pictures from the same perspective to give a true then-and-now effect. Strategic maps trace the course of campaigns, while never-before-published battlefield maps reveal the shifting formations of troops across geographically accurate terrain. «If you’re looking for only one book or set to read, Feltoe is so far an excellent choice.» – Niagara Life Includes: The Call to Arms The Pendulum of War The Flames of War The Tide of War A Crucible of Fire The Ashes of War

Отрывок из книги

First, as a salute to the memory of all those, on both sides of the lines, who served, sacrificed, and died as they loyally obeyed their country’s call-to-arms in the North American War of 1812–1815.

Social Life

Diversions are similar to those of the interior of New England. Dancing is a favourite amusement of the youth. Athletic sports are common. Family tea parties are the most frequent scenes of sociability. The country is too young for regular theatric entertainments, and those delicacies and refinements of luxury, which are the usual attainments of wealth. Dissipation, with her fascinating train of expenses and vices, has made but little progress on the shores of the lakes…. In winter great use is made of sleighs; and sleighing parties are fashionable; but taverns and provisions for travellers are, in many parts of the country, quite indifferent. The improvement of travelling accommodations has been retarded by the preference given to passages by water, during the summer months … fishing is a common amusement, easily connected with occasional supplies of provision…. Fashions of dress and modes of living are common to the inhabitants of the lower province and their neighbours in the States…. The habit of smoking is very common among all classes of people throughout the province….[7]
