Seminal 19th-century Canadian historical work that frames the War of 1812 as a foundational, heroic struggle for Canadian nationhood. Refuting American versions of the conflict, it emphasizes the "moral" of the war, presenting it as a defense of Canadian soil by a united English and French Canadian population. Covers major military engagements, including the Battle of Queenston Heights and the burning of Washington.
