I read the section, The Opposition, and I think my book does a good job giving it a pretty good chunk of information, but of course, like anything, there can always be more information about the topic given.

I would have stated that as the war continued, New England Federalists maintained their opposition. But this is not to say the region as a whole opposed the national war effort. Much of the financing and a substantial portion of the army and navy came from the region. Elbridge Gerry, the Vice President, and William Eustis, the secretary of war, hailed from Massachusetts. I would change it by giving more names of the people supporting this whole idea. (Henry Clay and John Calhoun pushed a declaration of war through Congress, stressing a short war had the added benefit of permitting the United States to grab valuable farmlands in the British colony of Canada. Vehement protests erupted in those parts of the country where the opposition Federalist political party held sway, especially in Connecticut and Massachusetts.) That is some more information that is importent that should be including in this text book.

To make this more interesting, I would brake it down more. I would give bullets and or stars to make it more easy to locate. I would also use smaller, and easier words to understand. Highlighting color on key facts I would also do if I were to be the editor, so therefore note taking would be easier.
