New Orleans 1815 : Andrew Jackson crushes the British

"The conflict that broke out in 1812 would complete the separation of America from England begun by the War of Independence (1775-1783). The war was bloody and hard fought. In one last attempt to break the deadlock, the British sent Major-General Sir Edward Pakenham to capture New Orleans. The troops he commanded were elite, veteran regiments. Andrew Jackson, leading the defenders, commanded a mixed force including militia, free Negro battalions, Indians and a group of local pirates. This title describes how this mixed force decisively defeated the British veterans in a battle that has become part of American legend." -- back cover
