@brian_gettler A refreshing take on the conflict is Alan Taylor's The Civil War of 1812. "In this North American civil war, brother fought brother in a borderland of mixed peoples." #Cdnhist #AmericanHistory #Warof1812 #Canada

@brian_gettler But I reckon Carney has not read any Canadian history since Desmond Morton's A Military History of Canada

@james_little Yes it is! The Civil War of 1812 continues themes from Taylor's earlier book, The Divided Ground, which is also worth checking out.
