Annotation |
With a bitterly divided nation plunged into the War of 1812, a fiery young Federalist editor named Alexander Hanson risked his life to defend a newspaper that dared express unpopular views. His words provoked a violent standoff that crippled the city of Baltimore and left Hanson beaten within an inch of his life. This little-known episode in American history helped shape the course of war, the Federalist Party, and the nation's very notion of the freedom of the press. Adult. Violence.
