About this book

Traces the story of a pivotal six-week period in 1814 that marked the turnaround of the War of 1812 and enabled a nearly defeated U.S. to rally against British forces at Baltimore, in an account that also shares perspectives on such contributors as Admiral Cockburn and Francis Scott Key.
