This book is about the final years of New France, a French colony in North America, during the Seven Years' War. It centers on the experiences of General Louis-Joseph de Montcalm, the French commander, and his efforts to defend the colony against British forces. The narrative covers key battles, the alliances with Native American tribes, and the political and military strategies that led to the eventual British victory and the cession of New France to Britain in the Treaty of Paris (1763).
