Kastor.With distrust between the political parties running deep and Congress divided, the government of the United States goes to war. The war is waged without adequatelypreparing the means to finance it or readying suitable contingency plans to contend with its unanticipated complications. The executive branch suffers from managerial confusion and in-fighting. The military invades a foreign country, expecting to be greeted as liberators, but encounters stiff, unwelcome resistance. The conflict drags on longer than predicted. It ends rather inconclusively-or so it seems in its aftermath.SouHistoryUnited StatesHistoryWar of 1812Political aspectsUnited StatesHistoryWar of 1812InfluenceUnited StatesPolitics and government1809-1817Electronic books.History.973.5/2Nivola Pietro S856934Kastor Peter J923509MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462374303321What so proudly we hailed2072363UNINA
