November 2012, the Avie Bennett Historica Dominion Institute Public Lecture in Canadian History

A compelling retelling of aspects of the War of 1812 by Pulitzer Prize winning author Alan Davis, Professor, University of California Davis. The equally skewed "popular" US and Canadian perspectives of the war and it's perceived outcomes are examined in light of very recent research. Professor Taylor offers a particularly insightful new interpretation of the war and its consequences on Aboriginals and borders.
