Book Synopsis The Fortifications of Île Aux Noix by : André Charbonneau
Download or read book The Fortifications of Île Aux Noix written by André Charbonneau and published by National Historic Sites, Parks Canada. This book was released on 1994 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the various phases in the development of Ile aux Noix's defensive role, this document has adopted a chronological division for the order of chapters. Thus, roughly speaking, the first three coincide with the main conflicts in which Ile aux Noix played a preponderant role: the Seven Years' War, the American War of Independence and the War of 1812. The three following chapters are more particularly concerned with Fort Lennox, which in a way was the end point of the island's defensive installations. After an assessment of the defensive situation which led to the construction of the fort, a complete chapter is devoted to its detailed technical analysis. Thus, space is given to the technical assessment of the fortification, and the implications for its defensive role are given particular attention. Chapter six analyses the last occasions on which thought was given to Ile aux Noix's defensive purpose and the modifications that this thinking produced.
Book Synopsis Early Fortification Ditches at Ile-aux-Noix, Quebec by : Roger T. Grange
Download or read book Early Fortification Ditches at Ile-aux-Noix, Quebec written by Roger T. Grange and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the 1966 excavations in early French and British fortification ditches at Fort Lennox National Historic Park, Saint-Paul-de-l'Ile-aux-Noix, Quebec. These fortifications were built in 1759 and used until 1819 when they were destroyed to make way for Fort Lennox. Associated artifacts recovered from the ditches and their fill deposits are analysed to provide achaeological dating and to correlate the earthworks with historical maps and other documentation. Ceramic formula dating is utilized in an effort to date the strata in the ditch fill deposits. The location of some early French features on the island is established through archaeological data.

Book Synopsis Colonial Forts of the Champlain and Hudson Valleys: Sentinels of Wood & Stone by : Michael G. Laramie
Download or read book Colonial Forts of the Champlain and Hudson Valleys: Sentinels of Wood & Stone written by Michael G. Laramie and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Montreal to New York City, the rivers and lakes of the Hudson and Champlain Valleys carved a path through the primeval forests of the Northeast. The rival French and English colonies on either end built strategic strongholds there throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The establishment of Fort St. Frederic at Crown Point gave the French command over the vital Lake Champlain. The French and Indian War saw the construction of frontier forts such as the English Fort William Henry at the headwaters of Lake George. Fortifications sometimes changed hands and names, such as when French-built Fort Carillon became the famed Fort Ticonderoga after a successful English siege. Author Michael G. Laramie charts the attempts to secure the most important chain of waterways in early North America.

Book Synopsis The a to Z of the War Of 1812 by : Robert Malcomson
Download or read book The a to Z of the War Of 1812 written by Robert Malcomson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While some wars are remembered forever, others quickly fade away. The War of 1812 has all but disappeared from American history, which might lead one to erroneously assume that it was not terribly important. Although there was no clear winner, this conflict deeply affected all participants. The Americans were proud that they had taken on one of the world's greatest powers and were not crushed. Britain still managed to hold onto its colonies, strengthening both their loyalty and identity as Canadians. The only real losers were the native peoples, who saw their claims to the land further eroded. The war was far from dull. There was plenty of action on the diplomatic front, as well as stirring encounters on land and at sea, many of which are carefully described in the entries in The A to Z of the War of 1812. Others deal with the more significant political and military figures; ships and weaponry; and the role of the British, Canadians, Native Americans, and the fledgling and not yet convincingly "United" States. The introduction presents an overview of the war, while the chronology outlines significant events. An extensive bibliography provides access for further studies that will be useful to those discovering just how important this war was. -- Back cover
