Reviews
1812: A Nation Emerges is a magnificent collection of art that introduces readers to the war, how it came to be, the conflict's aftermath, and the individuals involved. It is not just an American history, but also incorporates the viewpoints of the other combatants who fought in this too-long-neglected war. For those unable to view the exhibit and those who want to remember the exhibition long after it closes, this book is a worthy addition to any collection., Early 19th-century wartime personalities are the focus of this illuminating companion book to the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery's commemorative exhibit marking the bicentennial of the second war between Great Britain and the United States. The conflict's familiar episodes--the burning of the capitol, the attack on Baltimore, and the Battle of New Orleans--are briefly detailed and lushly illustrated. But this book from Hart, the Gallery's senior historian; and Penman, the exhibit's assistant curator; gets its distinctive heft from the stunning collection of portraits and brief but informative bios of famous military and political leaders of the era, including James Madison, Andrew Jackson, and Napoleon, as well as lesser-known figures like Zebulon Pike, who led an attack into Canada and is immortalized by a Coloradan summit bearing his name. Especially noteworthy are the profiles of American Indian leaders, like Governor Blacksnake (whose daguerreotype portrait is one of the book's most arresting), who tried to defend their territories and ways of life through ultimately futile alliances with the British. The authors also go beyond the beloved First Lady Dolley Madison to look at the lives of other prominent women who carved out unique places in American society during an intensely patriarchal era. Scholars may be miffed to find little or no new information here, but these portraits provide a remarkable glimpse into the people that fought in the U.S.'s second struggle for independence.

Synopsis
The War of 1812 completed the struggle for American independence that began in 1776 and propelled a new nation forward. 1812: A Nation Emerges accompanies the National Portrait Gallery exhibition of the same name and features 115 color images, an introduction by one of the exhibition's curators, and two essays by leading historians. Marking the two-hundredth anniversary of the conflict, this book explores how the United States was transformed and unified by the individuals who took part in that seminal event. It provides an overview of the battles, the negotiations for peace, the aftermath--known as "the era of good feelings"--and the great commercial, industrial, and cultural expansion that followed, which to some marked the birth of the United States as a world power., This exhibition catalogue delves into the war that solidified the independence of the United States of America, featuring portraits of a diverse range of participants: the major political and military figures of both America and Great Britain; the Native Americans who fought mainly on the British side of the conflict and had the most to lose; the wives of politicians and military officers in Washington, where more subtle struggles occurred; and a slave who helped save one of the nation's treasures.
