The 30 years following The Revolutionary War in North America had ushered in relative peace and prosperity across the continent. In the year 1812, Napoleon Bonaparte and his conquest of Europe was at the forefront of British minds, meanwhile the newly formed United States saw an opportunity to push the British out of North America altogether. Years of blockades, sieges, and impressment on the seas were persuading President James Madison and the Americans to declare war against King George III and his colonies.
The Niagara area was the borderland and frontier between nations, separated by a cascading river and unforgiving landscape. 1812: The Niagara Frontier follows the lives of citizens, soldiers, leaders, and warriors as they are confronted with the harsh realities of war in such a tumultuous time. It will be the actions and determinations of people like Laura Secord, Isaac Brock, Winfield Scott, and John Norton that will help forge the destiny of North America in the centuries to come.
