For two and a half years, Americans fought against the British, Canadian colonists, and native nations. The war threatened the existence of Canada and divided the United States so deeply that the nation almost broke apart. With stunning reenactments, evocative animation, and the incisive commentary of key experts, The War of 1812 presents the conflict that forged the destiny of a continent.
The War of 1812 is a production of WNED-TV, Buffalo/Toronto and Florentine Films/Hott Productions, Inc., in association with WETA Washington, D.C. Due to time limitations, this film has been edited from its original version. The War of 1812 will premiere on national TV on October 10, 2011 on PBS stations.
