4 volumes : illustrations, maps ; 26 cm "During the War of 1812 the U.S. Navy came of age. In fleet actions on the lakes and single ship engagements at sea, American men of war defeated Royal Navy ships of similar force. Naval officers such as Isaac Hull, Stephen Decatur, Oliver H. Perry, David Porter and Thomas Macdonough became heroes, and their ships, Constitution, United States, Niagara, Essex, and Saratoga, symbols for an American public proud of its navy. The three volumes will again call to mind the famous naval actions and events of our second war of independence with Great Britain"--Introduction. volume 1. 1812 -- volume 2. 1813 -- volume 3. 1814-1815, Chesapeake Bay, Northern Lakes, and Pacific Ocean -- volume 4. 1814-1815, Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico.
