Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from The Little Admiral It is historically true that the small son of an Admiral of the British Fleet was captured on the Isle aux Coudres in the manner described. He was held by the French till the taking of Quebec, but his adventures during those months are entirely fictitious. The story has been written not so much for a prize as for a purpose, to wit, the instilling into young Canadians of British extraction more sympathy for their fellow-countrymen, the French, than is usually displayed. Is not how it felt to lose Quebec as well worthy of delineation as how it felt to win it? In my early school days our study of Canadian history centred around the death of General Wolfe: They run! They run! Who run? asked the dying hero. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
