Stuart (history and political studies, Mount Saint Vincent U., Canada) examines the relationship between civilian and military officials in the US during the era of the War of 1812, especially how ideology, personality, politics, and policy shaped civil-military ideas, attitudes, policies, institutions, and actions from the 1780s to after 1815. He discusses these relations by theme, rather than chronologically, addressing the foundations and principal elements of US civil-military relations, the English and European heritage that affected American thinking in the eighteenth century, early US government and the Federalist perspective, how the Republican Party gained power and revised policies and themes, and the management of military affairs during the war. He then covers the militia system, martial law, and the impact of the war on reshaping civil-military matters after 1815. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
