In Full Glory Reflected:
Maryland in the War of 1812
THINK YOU KNOW THE WAR OF 1812? Just when was
our ‘Second War for Independence’ fought? (Hint: Not in 1812!)
Why was Canada involved in our war against Great Britain?
And who won anyway? The answers could change the way you
think about America’s ‘forgotten war’...
Our In Full Glory Reflected: Maryland in the War of 1812
tour details the heroes and symbols that came out of the War of 1812
that served to define what it is to be American today. Step back in
time 200 years and explore the tidewater world where the war was
fought. Hear gripping stories of devastating raids, heroic defense,
gallant privateers, fugitive slaves, and threatened lands. And see
first-hand one of America’s greatest national treasures: the original
manuscript of the Star-Spangled Banner song, written in Francis Scott
Key’s hand, which became our National Anthem.
For a limited time, tour participants will also get to take home
their own keepsake piece of War of 1812 history! A FREE copy
of our award-winning book, In Full Glory Reflected: Discovering
the War of 1812 in the Chesapeake (retail value: $24.95).
Offer ends September 30, 2014.
Blessed with over 7 million documents in our library and 350,000
artifacts in our museum, the Maryland Historical Society has
been telling the stories of Maryland with exhibits, programs, dramatic
presentations and travelling shows for generations. In fact,
The Washington Post designated our In Full Glory Reflected
exhibit as one of their Top 10 Exhibits of the year. See for yourself
what everyone is talking about!
