Perhaps no victory in the history of warfare has ever produced a grander table of spoils...than the French & Indian War. 

The savage 7-year battle for North America (started accidentally by a young George Washington) ended in Quebec City, and world power shifted massively to the English victors in far away places such as India, the Philippines, West Indies, and of course North America. 

British General James Wolfe was killed in the last battle, as was his French opponent, General Montcalm.  Neither lived to see the consequences to the nations they represented, though they surely lived to see the forest horrors. 

This is the "...remarkable story of how an ill, ambitious, neurotic, mother-ridden commander managed to wrest victory from defeat on he Plains of Abraham, winning in the process the hero's death he so valiantly sought."
