Washington is burning

Tells the story of how President James Madison's young slave Paul Jennings stayed behind when Washington, D.C., was threatened by the British during the War of 1812, and helped the president's wife Dolley save official papers and other valuable items from the White House before it was burned by the advancing British Army.
