As much of a history buff as I thought I was, this review of a strange war that really shaped our nation was an eye-opener. One almost lived through the to and fro of the English forces with American mercenaries against the French and the Indian nation, ending with the Plains of Abraham in Quebec. Whoever heard of Plains of Abraham, after all? And what heroic people they all were! The reader will admire his heritage, and realize how much we owe these ancestors.
