Montcalm & Wolfe: Two Men Who Forever Changed the Course of Canadian History by Roch Carrier
In September 1759, a small band of British troops led by James Wolfe scaled the tall cliff overlooking a farmer's field owned by Abraham Martin and overpowered the French garrison that protected the area, allowing the bulk of the British army to ascend the cliff behind and attack the French, who, led by Louis-Joseph de Montcalm, were largely unaware of Wolfe's tactics. The battle that ensued on what would become known as the Plains of Abraham would forever shape the geography and politics of Canada.
Montcalm and Wolfe, penned by one of Canada's finest writers, is the epic story of this battle told through the lives of the two generals, Wolfe and Montcalm. The book is a dual biography of the men and their most famous battle, written by a master storyteller. What kind of life did they have before they took up arms? What were the two men really like? and, most importantly, what forces brought them to face each other in a battle that forged a nation?
