Leaping flames rage and devour our Washington Capitol Building as British soldiers light torches and blast rockets into the city. Forty-five miles north in Baltimore, brave Americans dig in for additional attacks. A bugle sounds an alarm as 5,000 British soldiers advance directly towards the city. Meanwhile Fort McHenry is bombarding the British Navy all through the night. Will the Americans prevail? Francis Scott Key witnesses from Chesapeake Bay and captures the spirit we all know as our National Anthem. The significant warfare that occurred in 1814 is captured in this 11-page opus.
