The Battle of the Plains of Abraham: How Quebec Became British

Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science, Geography & More

In 1759, on a plateau outside Quebec City, two armies met in a battle that lasted less than an hour but changed the course of a continent. 

The Battle determined the fate of New France, reshaped Canada's future, and marked a turning point in the global struggle between Britain and France. 

It was a clash defined by daring strategy, brutal speed, and the deaths of two commanding generals.
