Historiography/Northern Women in American Civil War
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page research paper that discusses this topic. This area of historical study can be divided roughly into several categories, as there are books that detail the role of Northern women as nurses; abolitionists; spies; and as actual soldiers. The historiography of Northern women's involvement in the war is too vast to be addressed in a report of this limited length. Therefore, this discussion looks at works representing the early era of this historical endeavor and then at recent works that are representative of contemporary research into this aspect of American history. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Hitsman/Incredible War of 1812
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page book review on The Incredible War of 1812 (1965) by J. Mackay Hitsman, a classic text on this subject. Hitsman's scholarship is detailed as he accessed an extensive list of primary sources in Canada, Great Britain and the US. He offers historical fact within the cultural context of the era, offering insight into the causes of the conflict, as well as the strategic thinking on both sides. In 1812, a state of war existed between Great Britain and the United States, which thirty years previously had concluded its war for independence. But while it was the US and Great Britain that were at war, it was Canada that became the inadvertent battleground. This review focuses on the role of Canadian general Sir George Prevost.
