Osprey's study of James Wolfe's siege of Louisbourg during the
French and Indian War (1754-1763). Louisbourg represented a major
threat to Anglo-American plans to invade Canada. Bypassing it would
leave an immensely powerful enemy base astride the Anglo-American
lines of communication - Louisbourg had to be taken. Faced with
strong beach defences and rough weather, it took six days to land
the troops, and it was only due to a stroke of daring on the part
of a young brigadier named James Wolfe, who managed to turn the
French beach position, that this was achieved. The story is largely
based on firsthand accounts from the journals of several
participants, including French Governor Drucour's, whose excellent
account has never been published.
