Contents Description:

McLynn forcefully argues that the entire history of the world would have been different if not for the events of 1759, the fourth year of the Seven Years', or French and Indian, War. Called the "Year of Victories," it laid the foundations of British global dominance for the next century when in its two greatest battles—Quebec and Quiberon Bay—Britain effectively beat France for global supremacy. - from the back cover
