- Summary:
- This animated film is about the Seven Years War, or the French and Indian War, as it is called in the United States. In the early days of that war, British colonial forces were experiencing setback after setback. After the massive failure of Braddock's expedition in 1755, which resulted in a devastating blow to British morale in North America, command of all British forces would unexpectedly fall to General William Shirley, and the remaining expeditions against the French planned in North America would become his responsibility. One of those expeditions, the Crown Point Expedition, would lead to the largest engagement yet seen on the North American continent, at the Battle of Lake George.
