Show Notes

This episode takes a look at the winter of 1775-76, when 3R was evacuated because of an advancing army.  Did the  Americans wreak havoc on Trifluvian life, or were they more of a ragtag army?  Why did the French Canadians call it, "La guerre des autres?" Who was General Riedesel, and what tradition did his charming wife Charlotte introduce to Québec?  This week, François tells Julie all about the Bostonians.
