[1524] N. Y. Col. Docs., x. 1139. There are letters received by Bourlamaque between June 28, 1756, and the end of the contest in Canada (1760), preserved in the collection of Sir Thomas Phillipps. They are from Vaudreuil, De Lévis (after 1759), Berniers, Bougainville, Murray, Malartic, D’Hébécourt, etc. Copies of them are in the Parkman MSS. (Mass. Hist. Soc.).
There is a summary of the strategical movements of the war in a Précis of the Wars in Canada, 1755-1814, prepared, by order of the Duke of Wellington in 1826, by Maj.-Gen. Sir James Carmichael-Smyth, “for the use and convenience of official people only.” During the American civil war (1862) a public edition was issued, edited by the younger Sir James Carmichael, with the thought that some entanglement of Great Britain in the American civil war (1861-1865) might render the teachings of the book convenient. The editor, in an introduction, undertakes to say “that the State of Maine has exhibited an unmistakable desire for annexation to the British Crown,” which, if carried out, would enable Great Britain better to maintain military connection between Canada and New Brunswick.
