"The Final Invasion" reveals the amazing struggle of America's "Forgotten War" with Great Britain in 1812. The 58 minute video offers a general overview on the causes of the War of 1812 and then concentrates on a key battle that changed the course of American history in 1814. Shot on-location in Great Britain, Canada and the US "The Final Invasion" features leading authors, re-enactments, previously unpublished diaries and newly discovered documents. Sophisticated 3-d animation reveal how a "rag-tag" American force of less than 3,500 soldiers, sailors, militia and citizens defeated over 14,000 of his majesty's fiercest troops, veterans of the Duke of Wellington's army, fresh from victory over Napoleon in Spain.
