SUMMARY:Newburyport's Road to Independence\, Part II: Québec 1775-1776: The Last Siege
DESCRIPTION:During the first months of the War of Independence\, the Continental Army set its sights on the Province of Quebec. This British colony\, born from the ashes of New France\, is equally a threat and an opportunity for the Thirteen Colonies. How did the Canadian population react to the invasion of their territory? How did this first major campaign unfold? Focusing on the events surrounding Québec City\, discover the efforts to capture it\, from Benedict Arnold’s fateful expedition in the wilderness\, to the siege of the city in 1775\, the Battle of Québec on Dec. 31\, 1775\, and the departure of the Continental Army in May 1776. \nLuc Nicole-Labrie has been a historian and historical interpretation coordinator for the National Battlefields Commission since 2007. He has an academic background in history\, tourism\, and culture. He has contributed to numerous educational activities\, exhibitions\, lectures\, articles\, and guided tours on the events surrounding the Battles of the Plains of Abraham and Sainte-Foy\, as well as the history of the Plains of Abraham and Québec City. \nCLICK HERE to reserve tickets \nPlease note: for questions on tickets\, please contact the Museum of Old Newbury. Sponsored by the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism.
