A New Documentary Drives Home the Historical Importance of the War of 1812
Amherst, MA
(2011-09-16)
PBS has broadcast comprehensive documentaries on just about all of this nation's wars but one dropped off the radar - until now. Documentary producer Larry Hott and co producer Diane Garey who live in Florence, Massachusetts , spent the last seven years making "The War of 1812." Hott told NEPR's Jill Kaufman, because this war was so complicated and without a clear victor, it's not even thought about by most Americans or Europeans.
