This Day in History: 09/13/1814 - Key Star-Spangled Banner. In this This Day in History video, the 9/13/1814 writing of the Star Spangled Banner by Francis Scott Key is recounted. It was inspired by the British bombing of Ft. McHenry during the War of 1812.
Soon afterward, Thomas Carr, the owner of a music store in Baltimore, published the words and music together with the name The Star-Spangled Banner.. Although âThe Star-Spangled Bannerâ quickly became popular with Americans, it did not receive official recognition as the national anthem until many years later. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered that it be played at all military functions.
