Ticonderoga 1758: Montcalm's Victory Against All Odds
On 5 July 1758, General Abercromby's expedition against Fort Carillon set off from its camp. Within hours, tragedy struck when some rangers encountered a French scouting party, leading to a skirmish in which Lord Howe was shot through the heart. The army was shattered by this loss, and Abercromby was overwhelmed. He decided to attack Montcalm's completed breastworks head-on, sacrificing battalion after battalion, including the famous Black Watch. With their plan failed and the army exhausted, Abercromby retreated to the foot of Lake George. Montcalm had saved Canada, with Abercromby's help.
