War of 1812 (Part 2) | The Fire That Reforged a Nation

War of 1812 (Part 2) | The Fire That Reforged a Nation

Washington burns. The White House is in flames. But from the smoke and ashes, a nation discovers what it means to be American.

The War of 1812's darkest hour became its defining triumph. As British veterans fresh from defeating Napoleon torched the capital, as rockets rained on Fort McHenry, as peace was signed but war raged on, Americans transformed humiliation into legend.

Join us for the explosive conclusion of our two-part series on the War of 1812. In this second installment, we witness Perry's amazing victory on Lake Erie, the death of the great Tecumseh, the night America's capital burned to the ground, and Andrew Jackson's stunning victory at New Orleans - a battle that remade American identity, fought two weeks after the war had already ended.
