Description
Experience the three darkest days of American history -- the week when Washington burned.
Once Napoleon is subdued, and despite the commencement of peace negotiations, Britain unleashes her triumphant European conquerors on America. And their primary target? Washington.
While attentions turn to the defense of the Capital, mercenaries threaten Hannah and the Winding Willows. The threat forces enemies to become allies, as the Willows and White Oak plantations join forces and fight side-by-side with freed slaves to defend their homes and families.
Mere miles away, the Capital's defense now rests predominantly upon citizen soldiers and a most unlikely naval force -- a rag-tag fleet called the Chesapeake flotilla -- and the men who built it. Jed also races to the defend Washington City against the mightiest army in the world. But Britain's house is also divided over the war, as the cost mounts in blood and money.
Experience the pain and passion of five families -- American, slave and British -- as they endure the three darkest days of American history -- the week when Washington burned.
