The Siege of Fort Beauséjour, 1755 (New Brunswick Military Heritage Series) Paperback - 2004
by Chris Hand
From the rear cover
In the 1750s, the present New Brunswick / Nova Scotia border was a fortified camp as the British and French vied for Acadia. Fort Beausjour guarded the rich fields that Acadian farmers had cultivated for generations, and it secured New France's crucial overland route from the Atlantic to the North American interior. Fort Lawrence, in plain view only three kilometres away, asserted the British counterclaim. In June 1755, after a brief siege, a combined force of British soldiers and New England volunteers captured Fort Beausjour.
The Siege of Fort Beausjour, 1755 tells the story of the fort and its defeat. When Beausjour fell, so did Acadia and, within a few years, New France. This campaign determined the fate of the region, precipitated the Deportation of the Acadians, and changed the destiny of the entire continent.
The Siege of Fort Beausjour, 1755 is the third volume in the New Brunswick Military Heritage Series.
