Battle of New Orleans: Mythbusted

How did a rag-tag American army manage to gut a veteran British force at the Battle of New Orleans? Dr Joseph Stoltz returns to complete our analysis of the Battle of New Orleans, exploring the myths that have sprung up, the way in which the history of the battle has been manipulated, and why both the US and UK are keen to not make too much of this David vs Goliath event.
