Book Description
On August 24, 1814, British troops fighting America in the War of 1812 occupied Washington and burned the White House to the ground. How did such an "unnecessary" war come to jeopardize our newborn nation's very existence? And how did a ragtag American army, led by a backwoods general, finally battle the world's then-superpower to a draw?
