Born in the crashing waters of Niagara Falls, the story of Lake Ontario is a tumultuous one. Of all the Great Lakes none was more fought over than Lake Ontario. From ancient times until very recently Lake Ontario was a bloody battlefield. Under its waters lies a graveyard of ships and men. This one-hour documentary explains the reasons why the lake was so hotly fought over and explores the great vessels and mighty strongholds that were critical in the battles fought for control of the lake. Filmed in High Definition, the program's stunning photography soars above Lake Ontario and the world famous Niagara Falls and then plunges underwater to examine shipwrecks from the War of 1812.
