"How Canada Was Won: A Tale of Wolfe and Quebec" by Captain F. S. Brereton is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story immerses readers in the tumultuous period of the French and Indian War, centering around the character of Steve Mainwaring, a young backwoodsman navigating the perilous landscapes of North America. The novel vividly portrays the battle between French forces and English settlers, capturing the struggle for control over Canada through engaging and action-packed narratives. The opening of the novel introduces us to Steve Mainwaring and his companions as they set up camp on the bank of the Mohawk River. The scene is tense, as they share their experiences and survey the surrounding wilderness, aware of the looming dangers from both the French and Native American forces. As the group discusses their next moves, the stakes are raised with the introduction of a hostile scout, prompting Steve and his father, Judge Mainwaring, to engage in a risky pursuit. Their journey is marked by cautious planning and moments of intense confrontation, setting the tone for the adventure and conflict to unfold as they try to evade capture and protect their lives and livelihoods.
