Welcome to Witness to Yesterday. This summer, we will be reissuing our top 10 episodes. We hope you enjoy revisiting these with us. The Witness to Yesterday team is working hard, and we're excited to bring you the next new season in September, 2023. Thank you for listening. Original Episode Description:

Patrice Dutil discusses the life and military career of James Wolfe, the commander of British troops that conquered Quebec in 1759, with Larry Ostola. Ostola is the editor of the 2021 Volume of the Champlain Society entitled “Your Most Obedient and Affectionate Son”: James Wolfe’s Letters to His Parents, 1740-1759. Dutil and Ostola explore the quality and content of Wolfe’s letters to his parents as he details his rapid climb in the military, the people he meets and the places he visits. Ostola also offers a perspective on the development of Wolfe’s personality and on the task of editing these letters. This podcast was produced by Jessica Schmidt.
