The Battle for Quebec 1759

Ward does a solid job with the operations here, descriptions of the armies, etc. What surprised me is the lack of biographical info on all of the key players. We don't really get to know them that well. Also, his chapter on how Wolfe gets to the point of chosing the location for his landing below the Plains of Abraham, why he did so, and how it came off was very abrupt. Ward gives us so much detail @ the ops up to that point, and then it seems like WHAM!!, Wolfe decides where and when to attack all of a sudden. Ward also seems not to have consulted a recent WMQ article about how the planners used the tides, charts, etc., to make a final decision on where and when to attack the city.
