The Battle of Quebec

December 31, 1775
      Today was the battle of Quebec and it was fought between American Continental Armies and the Brittish defenders of Quebec. And it ended in very important people getting wounded like Benedict Arnold, General Montgomery was killed, and Daniel Morgan and more than 400 were taken prisoner!

                                           In this street battle scene, blue-coated American and British troops face each other in a snowstorm. The high city walls are visible in the background to the left, and men fire from second-story windows of buildings lining the narrow lane.  A body and scaling ladders lie in blood-stained snow in the foreground.
