Publisher's summary

The Late War Between the United States and Britain is a historical text written by Gilbert J. Hunt and published in 1816. The book presents itself as a retelling of the War of 1812 in the style of the King James Bible, combining historical events with biblical language and tone. It is often referred to as a patriotic children's book due to its intended audience and its attempt to teach young listeners about the war in a moral and religious context. In the book, Hunt narrates the events of the War of 1812 in a simplified and dramatic manner, portraying the conflict as a righteous struggle between good and evil. The battles and key moments of the war are depicted through allegorical language, drawing parallels to biblical tales of valor and triumph. Through this unique presentation, the author seeks to instill a sense of national pride and virtue in young American listeners, framing the war as a divine mission to defend liberty and uphold American values.

Although The Late War Between the United States and Britain was popular in its time and contributed to the growth of American nationalism. It is also important to note that it is frequently credited with being a primary source of inspiration for the invention of the Book of Mormon, authored by Joseph Smith and then published in 1830.

Booooooring

This may have been the most poorly written book I’ve ever experienced. I could barely get through it. No depth at all. Terribly boring.
