Description
“The best and fullest account of the first siege of Louisbourg,” wrote historian W.S. MacNutt. The reader is there for the planning and the rabble-rousing and the day-by-day details of this essential event in Canadian history and in American consciousness. L.E. DeForest called “the capture of Louisbourg in 1745 the most important military achievement of the American Colonists prior to the War of the Revolution.” Told in considerable depth and detail, this extremely readable book accounts for and describes that colonial achievement, and George Rawlyk’s telling is considered the most complete and best book on the subject. “An excellent, fair, comprehensive history of the 1745 Siege of Louisbourg.” — Goodreads
