Summary
Brock's Agent
In 1811, while Great Britain was battling Napoleon, Thomas Jefferson declared that seizing British North America would be a mere matter of marching, but Jefferson hadn't counted on British Major General Issac Brock. Brock moulded a reluctant citizenry, the natives, and his meagre army of 1500 redcoats into a fighting force. The future of North America would hang on the outcome.
