Summary: Great guide to an overlooked period
Comment: While occasionaly uneven in its listings (i.e. some areas covered in great detail a few like the Delmarva region are glossed over and Florida is ignored), the book is the best I've seen on the subject. Collins tries to cover everything and in the end comes close. This is a great help on any battlefield trips.

Rating: 5
Summary: An outstanding anotated list of War of 1812 sites with maps
Comment: Sites are listed from the War of 1812 according to region. A map and symbols are given for each region, in order to locate sites and present locations, as well as indicate what a visitor might expect to find. Use of photographs and postage stamps is an added enhancement.A brief summary of events and particpants is included for each site. Current status and modifications are also indicated. The book is written by a Canadian, who fairly even handedly relates events.Most depth is given to sites in Canada, put American sites are well covered. The only major missing location in the USA is Pensacola. Otherwise EVERYPLACE is covered well.
