DESCRIPTION:
(from History's press release, March 2017) A few decades after securing independence, the fledgling United States, led by President James Madison, was once again pulled into battle with Great Britain and its Canadian and Native American allies. It was a fierce battle for control of territory and freedom of the seas that included the burning of the White House, and was the last large-scale attempt by the Native American nations to maintain power by forming an alliance with the British, which led to over 100 treaties when the war ended. From A+E Studios and creator and writer Michael Hirst ("Vikings," "The Tudors"), this is the iconic story of the little-known war that forever secured the nation's independence and would see the origin of the Star Spangled Banner. |
