Stephen Budiansky, Perilous Fight
Allan Eckert's, The Frontiersmen, concludes with dramatic scenes from the War of 1812 (and events involving the book's character's leading up to the climax, tying it all together).
So, of course that got me searching around for stuff on the war; there's a load of great books on the topic!
I'll have more later, but this is great.
At Amazon, Stephen Budiansky, Perilous Fight: America's Intrepid War with Britain on the High Seas, 1812-1815.

I am a fan of Dioni Tabbers. I don’t really know all that much about her, other than the fact that she doesn’t really have much of a following, considering she’s been getting naked for photoshoots for at least 4 years…at least according to my documenting of her getting naked -> LINK HERE BUT TOO LAZY TO GO FIND IT.Heh.

'Cuckold Stands by Wife' After She Cheats with 14-Year-Old Boy
Ouch.
That's a harsh headline.
Maybe the dude just loves his wife and practices Christian forgiveness.
That said, being "cuck" is kind of a thing these days, lol.

Former Student Making Allegations Against #NeilGorsuch Has Ties to Obama, Democrats
This is some nasty politics.
Totally disgusting.
The accuser's a partisan Democrat hack, and NPR tried to walk back its initial botched hit job. Too late though. You can't clean up that sleaze once you spread it.

I've Finished Allan Eckert's, The Frontiersmen
The book's almost 700 pages long.
I've got to plow through chapter after chapter when I'm reading big tomes like this one, mostly because I've got to get on to my next book.
I read most of the day yesterday, except to watch UCLA in the March Madness tournament (against Cincinnati).
In any case, Eckert can't be recommended too highly. Indeed, I'm going to start on book two of his "Narratives of America" series after not too long.
At Amazon, Allan Eckert, The Frontiersmen: A Narrative.
And don't miss others in the series, Wilderness Empire: A Narrative; The Conquerors; The Wilderness War; Gateway to Empire; and Twilight of Empire.
Thanks for your support.

Edmund Wilson, Apologies to the Iroquois
*BUMPED.*
I picked up a used copy.
And the book's available at Amazon, Edmund Wilson, Apologies to the Iroquois: With a Study of the Mohawks in High Steel, by Joseph Mitchell.
Also at the New Yorker, "APOLOGIES TO THE IROQUOIS (OCTOBER 17, 1959 ISSUE)."
Wilson was a very interesting fellow. He published To the Finland Station, a study on "the course of European socialism," in 1940 (and much more).

Most young Americans are blithering idiots, so you can discount these findings, for sure.
