Greg,
"I think something was left out of my US public school education. " I'll bet, this is from wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burning_of_Washington
The attack was in retaliation for the U.S. invasion of York, Upper Canada (now Toronto, Ontario, Canada), at the Battle of York in 1813, in which U.S. forces looted and burned the city, including the Parliament Buildings of Upper Canada.
So two centuries later and not much change:-(
Thanks Tony. So much for the myth that America has never been invaded...
I thought it was common knowledge that America was invaded by hordes of cowboys, get-rich-quickists, and religious nuts, from England etc., and things haven't entirely changed since.
