Louisbourg was for 40 years a military base in America that seems to have been very disliked by everyone including those who lived there. There were a series of battles which are described in this book, that took place between the French, the colonists, the Americans and the British, who eventually destroyed it.

Excerpt from The Great Fortress: A Chronicle of Louisbourg, 1720-1760 Louisbourg was no mere isolated strong hold which could be lost or won without affecting the wider issues of oversea dominion. On the contrary, it was a necessary link in the chain of waterside posts which connected France with America by way of the Atlantic, the St Lawrence, the Great Lakes, and the Mississippi. But since the chain itself and all its other links, and even the peculiar relation of Louisbourg to the Acadians and the Conquest, have been fully described else where in the Chronicles of Canada, the present volume only tries to tell the purely individual tale. Strange to say, this tale seems never to have been told before; at least, not as one continuous whole. Of course, each siege has been described, over and over again, in many Special monographs as well as in countless books about Canadian history. But nobody.
