With Wolfe in Canada:
A Tale of the French and Indian War
by G.A. Henty
Audio Recording by Jim Hodges
Setting: AD 1750’s and 60’s – North America – French and Indian War
Story: Shortly before the United States Revolutionary War against England, most inhabitants were her loyal subjects. France had control of much of southern Canada and the “western” lands of the current states of Pennsylvania and Ohio. Skirmishes abounded for years between English settlers pushing west and French settlers and her Indian accomplices. The Seven Years War in Europe spilled over to the colonies, where General Wolfe finally defeated the French in Quebec. Includes depictions of the battles of Forts Duquesne and Necessity in Pennsylvania, and Forts Ticonderoga and William Henry in New York, and Quebec in Canada.

About G.A. Henty
Henty, being a Victorian Englishman, wrote his historical fiction from that worldview. His stories are fiercely historically accurate and full of noble character – honesty, chivalry, integrity, courage, loyalty, diligence, charity and justice. After thoroughly studying the time period on which he wanted to write, he would quickly pace back and forth in his study dictating a story to one of his stenographers as fast as the man could take it down. In this manner he could easily fulfill his contract with his publisher for three books per year. Before he died in 1901, he had written 122 books, and had been dubbed “The Prince of Story-Tellers” by contemporary critics.
