To me, a major deficiency of the work is the absence of any maps. Geography heavily influenced the war in Louisiana and not having even a basic graphical reference is a major inconvenience.
Having described what I felt are deficiencies in the book, I must say that it did serve well to describe the overall situation and did discuss the political and military factors which gave shape to it. The book was well-written and an informative general presentation about a not-too-well-known arena.
In summary, a reversal of the title and subtitle would more accurately describe the work. ( )
