Produktbeschreibung

America's War with Canada: Tecumseh and the Fate of a Continent Step into the forgotten firestorm that reshaped North America. In 1812, amid the echoes of revolution and empire, a new conflict erupted-one that would pit the young United States against British Canada, Indigenous nations against extinction, and rival dreams of destiny against one another. This was not just a war for territory-it was a war for the soul of a continent. America's War with Canada unravels the full saga of the War of 1812 through 30 vivid and dramatic chapters, diving deep into the battlefronts, political schemes, and spiritual struggles that defined the era. From the dense forests of the Great Lakes to the smoldering ruins of Washington D.C., from the stormy Atlantic to the swamps of New Orleans, this book brings to life the people, places, and power plays that forever changed the Western Hemisphere. At the center of this sweeping narrative stands Tecumseh, the charismatic Shawnee warrior-statesman who dreamed of a united Indigenous confederacy. His alliance with the British and tragic fall at the Battle of the Thames is a poignant symbol of a resistance crushed-but never forgotten. You'll journey through the rise of Andrew Jackson and the bloody glory of New Orleans, the panic in American cities under siege, the bravery of Canadian militias, and the betrayal of Native nations promised protection by imperial powers. Discover the dramatic burning of the White House, the spirited defense of Fort McHenry that inspired a national anthem, and the shadowy negotiations in Ghent that ended a war-but not its consequences. This is a war few remember, but one that profoundly shaped the boundaries, politics, and identities of modern America and Canada. It marked the end of Indigenous independence in the East, the death of British ambitions in the U.S., and the birth of a uniquely Canadian consciousness. Packed with rich detail, historical insight, and emotional depth, America's War with Canada is ideal for readers of military history, Native resistance, American and Canadian political history, and compelling nonfiction storytelling. Whether you're a student of war, a lover of epic biographies, or simply curious about how a nearly forgotten war forged the modern world-this is the book you've been waiting for. Grab your copy today and rediscover the war that changed everything.

Autorenporträt

I'm Borna Ahadi, a writer drawn to the hidden stories behind the headlines and the forgotten voices of history. My passion lies in exploring the complexity of human character-whether in the corridors of power, on the battlefield, or in the quiet moments that shape destiny. I write to uncover truth, provoke thought, and connect the past to our present in a way that feels alive and urgent. Every book I create is a journey-not just through time, but into the heart of what it means to lead, to fail, and to rise again. If you're someone who questions, reflects, and craves deeper understanding, you're exactly who I write for.
