This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting story of a pivotal battle in the Seven Years’ War that changed Canadian history forever. Seventeen-year-old Sébastien de L’Espérance and his friend Guillaume have fought to keep the British from getting a foothold in Île Royale (now Cape Breton Island) ever since the young men came from France two years ago. Britain has blockaded Louisbourg, and supplies for the 4000 inhabitants are running short. Despite Louisbourg’s massive defences, if cut off from supplies provided by France, it cannot survive. Both young men are members of the Compagnies Franches de la Marine. They are sent out on scouting missions that provide valuable information about the British troops — troops which outnumber the French three to one. When British warships arrive in force, Sébastien vows to defend the town, his friend Guillaume, and the woman he loves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The July 1995 proceedings feature 64 papers presented by cereal chemists, geneticists, physiologists, and researchers working with pre-harvest germination, sprouting damage, and dormancy in order to help growers succeed in harvesting their crops before rain or fog induces pre-harvest sprouting and lowers the commercial value of their crops. The 1995 program develops more molecular approaches to sprouting problems than in previous years, and highlights international developments in gene location, plant processes at a molecular level, and new technologies to develop more efficient diagnostic and screening tests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A.J.B. Johnston establishes the secular and religious contexts of life at Louisbourg and traces the mixed fortunes of three religious groups: the Récollets of Brittany, who acted as parish priests and chaplains; the Brothers of Charity of Saint John of God, who operated the King's Hospital; and the Sisters of the Congregation of Notre-Dame, who ran the local school for girls. Drawing on the extensive material in the Archives of the Fortress of Louisbourg, Johnston notes the groups' remarkable persistence in the face of personnel shortages, financial burdens, and conflicts with secular authorities and rival religious bodies. Not the least of their problems was the profound parsimony of the Louisbourgeois who declined to build a parish church or pay a compulsory tithe. Yet despite this independent stance, the author demonstrates, religion was at the centre of family and community life. Life and Religion at Louisbourg contributes substantially to the social as well as the religious history of New France.

Book excerpt: Marie Gauthier is taken from her ancestral Acadian home by the English. As a prisoner with the women and children of her village, she survives a wreck of the British warship ferrying the Acadians to their diaspora. Along with other survivors, Marie makes a difficult overland journey to the safety of Louisbourg. Taken in by the governoras wife, she makes a desperate search for her lost family. Marie suffers with French citizens and soldiers under the British siege of the fortress. At Government House she finds an unlikely attraction to a young Scottish emissary of the British, rivaling her attraction to French Brevet Captain Renau. Born under a sentence of death, Charles MacGregor could never set foot in Scotland. With no money and little opportunity, he joins the British Navy. The Navy of 1750 cares little for a manas background; it cares only if a man is an able sailor and brave in battle. At Sea, on a British frigate, MacGregor proves he is one of the best. Educated at Versailles, his fluent French wins him an appointment as emissary to the governor of Louisbourg. While delivering surrender demands, he finds a strange attraction to Marie Gauthier. Step back in time to the days of wooden warships and life in the besieged fortress of Louisbourg...
