The low point of the war—from the American point of view—was the British invasion of Washington D.C.\, which forced President Madison to flee the capital. The high point was America’s victory at the Battle of New Orleans. Never since 1815 have Britain and America fought one another. \n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			About the Lecturer\n\n			\n		\n	\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPatrick Allitt is Cahoon Family Professor of American History.
