American Invasions of Quebec – Revolutionary War & War of 1812
War Causes, Campaigns & British Victories – Battles of Quebec,
Chateauguay & Crysler’s Farm – 1700-1900
@ 250 pgs
The Seven Years’ War ended in 1763 with the Royal Proclamation by George III to protect First Nations in British North America as the Thirteen Colonies looked for their own government. This book explores the causes of the American Revolutionary War of 1775-83, including the 1775 premature Quebec incursion by Benedict Arnold (1741) before General Washington stopped it and sent two armies under Brig.-Gen. Montgomery and Arnold to capture the Quebec citadel.
The Americans were defeated at the Quebec citadel and forced to retreat, despite an earlier surrender of Montreal where Benjamin Franklin decided Americans should abandon Canada as a potential 14th colony. With the Treaty of Paris, the U.S. gained significant land east and west of the Appalachians, impacting First Nations who were soon confined to live on reservations.
Also highlighted is the rise and fall of American Benedict Arnold’s career after his naval defeat on Lake Champlain, his victory at Saratoga, his British defection and future traitor humiliation.
War of 1812 between U.S. and Britain causes are explored with Canada having a tenth of the population and seen as a “stroll in the park” to defeat. U.S. Brig.-Gen. Wilkinson led the U.S. invasion with 8,000 men on St. Lawrence River barges to meet Brig.-Gen. Hampton’s 4,000 land troops from Lake Champlain, but the two armies failed to capture Montreal.
Hampton was defeated by 300 Canadians in October 1813 at the “Battle of Chateauguay”, QC and Wilkinson was defeated a month later at the “Battle of Crysler’s Farm” near Morrisburg, ON before both armies retreated to Plattsburgh, NY for the winter of 1813. The war ended in a stalemate in December 1814 after a U.S. naval victory at the “Battle of Plattsburgh”.
