In 1812, the United States expected a swift invasion of Canada.
What followed instead was one of the most complete military collapses in early American history.
At Detroit, an entire American army surrendered without a decisive battle — not because of a single mistake, but because of a chain of decisions, logistics failures, and strategic misjudgments that had already sealed its fate.
This documentary reconstructs how the invasion unraveled:
from political assumptions in Washington, to fractured command, supply failures, and the fatal moments that shaped the campaign along the Canadian frontier.
The disaster at Detroit was not an accident.
It was the cost of how the war was planned, organized, and fought.
Told in a restrained, archival style, this episode examines the War of 1812 not as a story of heroes and villains, but as a system under pressure — and the human decisions caught inside it.
This is part of an ongoing series on the War of 1812, exploring how wars fail before the first shots are fired.
