"This final episode describes how the British push north into Canada and lay siege to the hilltop fort at Quebec. General James A. Wolfe orders his troops to launch a surprise attack that defeats the French at last. Aided by the Iroquois, the British bring the war, and French influence in Canada, to an end. In the aftermath of victory, the British treasury is drained, and Parliament imposes taxes on the colonies. George Washington, now a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses, chafes at British control. With the Stamp Act and the Tea tax, the time arrives to declare independence, and Washington takes command of the Continental Army."
