Tourists can step back in time as they travel the same roads and waterways that American and British troops did two centuries ago.

All but forgotten by Americans, the War of 1812 (1812-1815) was a dramatic watershed for the young United States Republic. Ill-prepared to fight the powerful English nation, the US struggled through three years of conflict. This book uncovers stories of devastating raids, heroic defense, gallant privateers, fugitive slaves, and threatened lands.
