We start off the & Years war with a look at some of the major leaders, William Pitt the elder, Choiseul, Frederick the Great and Maria Teresa and the Diplomatic Revolution.

 Then we turn to North America, where this war was known as the French and Indian War and take the war from the small forces with obscure commanders like George Washington through the deportation of the Acadians and then look at Wolfe and Montcalm covering the dramatic seizure of Quebec.  There is also a long look at the failed campaign in upper New York under Abercromby starring Duncan Campbell and the ghost who haunts him.
