THE WINNING OF CANADA
A Chronicle of Wolfe

By WILLIAM WOOD
TORONTO, 1915




AUTHOR'S NOTE

Any life of Wolfe can be artificially simplified by
treating his purely military work as something complete
in itself and not as a part of a greater whole. But,
since such treatment gives a totally false idea of his
achievement, this little sketch, drawn straight from
original sources, tries to show him as he really was, a
co-worker with the British fleet in a war based entirely
on naval strategy and inseparably connected with
international affairs of world-wide significance. The
only simplification attempted here is that of arrangement
and expression.
