  This audio file could be used to enrich a lesson on the French and Indian War. The music could be used to pique student interest at the beginning of class or as background music for a presentation on the Battle of Quebec.

  Related links could be used to supplement textbook materials on the French and Indian War. Link to site with materials on how newspapers covered the war provides an interesting alternative to dry textbook summaries and could be used to show students how the events were viewed at the time rather than through the lens of current perspectives.
