?It is remarkable that for all of the interest in the War of 1812 generated by historians, there has existed no bibliographic reference work for the conflict comparable to the variety of such guides for the American Revolution, the Mexican War, and the Civil War. That void has at last been filled with the publication of this comprehensive listing of almost six thousand published and unpublished works, both primary and secondary, drawn from over two hundred libraries and over a hundred manuscript repositories.... Both Fredriksen and Greenwood Press are to be commended for this valuable guide to the prodigious efforts at collection and organization it reflects.?-Georgia Historical Quarterly
