Britain's Canada, 1613-1770

Sheila Nelson

Sommaire
For centuries Britain and France fought wars in Europe-but in the 1600s, as both countries claimed territory in the New World, the fighting spread to North America. While France settled in Acadia and along the St. Lawrence River, the British concentrated on Newfoundland and on their southern American colonies. Each claimed North America for itself.
