The History Channel Presents: The War of 1812

The History Channel Presents: The War of 1812 is a comprehensive, definitive chronicle of America's forgotten conflict, which came to be known as the "Second War of Independence." This curated collection brings together five premier historical documentaries and special features to capture the full scope of a young United States declaring war against Great Britain's global superpower. From the tactical battlegrounds of Canada and the burning of Washington, D.C. to the technological birth of high-seas ironclads and the monumental victory at the Battle of New Orleans, the collection combines dramatic reenactments, period letters, and expert analysis. More than just a military history, this definitive anthology charts the critical trial by fire that forged the American identity, gave birth to the national anthem, and birthed a new era of iconic leadership.
