Harrison gains the upper hand on British forces in the old Northwest and crosses the border into Canada to take the fight to them. However, political intrigue on the American side will impede military progress, and Harrison will ultimately be forced to defend his honor while his family back at home copes with personal strains. The war takes a toll on the Harrisons and the nation in this episode of the Harrison Podcast. Source information can be found at http://whhpodcast.blubrry.com.
