The Rise of American Nationality, 1811–1819 by Kendric Charles Babcock, PhD, President of the University of Arizona

Narrated by Joseph Tabler

Volume 13 of 27 in The American Nation: A History published by Harper Brothers (1904–1918). Edited by Albert Bushnell Hart, Professor of History at Harvard University

From the Editor’s Introduction to the Series: That a new history of the United States is needed, extending from the discovery down to the present time hardly needs a statement. No such comprehensive work by a competent writer is now in existence. Individual writers have treated only limited chronological fields. Meantime there, is a rapid increase of published sources and of serviceable monographs based on material hitherto unused. On the one side, there is a necessity for an intelligent summarizing of the present knowledge of American history by trained specialists; on the other hand, there is a need for a complete work, written in an untechnical style, which shall serve for the instruction and the entertainment of the general reader.

Part of a review: “A rigid classification would demand these volumes be assigned to the class of historical writings designed for the general reader rather than for the special student. The books are not and do not pretend to be distinct contributions to the historical scholar’s knowledge of the period traversed; yet the sane and impartial judgement displayed and the admirable sense of proportion evinced, together with the clear grasp and scholarly exposition of the subjects treated, make each a work that the special student cannot afford to neglect.”—Marshall S. Brown in the American Historical Review, Oct. 1906.

From the Editor’s Introduction to Volume Thirteen: The author does not shrink from laying bare the mistakes of our fathers in the War of 1812: the ineptitude of the military administration; the violence of party opposition; the disgraceful defeats in most of the conflicts on land; but the helplessness of the war period is strongly contrasted, first, with the brilliance of the naval operations; second, with the growth of national pride and national consciousness when the war was over; and, third, with the new point of view of European nations towards the great American republic.

From the Author’s Preface: [In] the pages of this volume I have striven to show how the United States achieved its real emancipation from European domination and became a nation…The injunction to rely chiefly upon original materials has been cordially observed, even when it has necessitated reference to rare and obscure books. On the other hand, certain secondary works, such as Henry Adams’s United States and Mahan’s War of 1812 have such peculiar elements of strength that it would be folly for a writer of more general work to neglect them.
