Rogers' St. Francis Raid of 1759: Colonial America's most incredible feat of the French and Indian War. 1759: the critical year when English and American Colonial arms were determining whether we would be speaking English or Gallic today. The three-pronged attack to complete the conquest of French Canada was at an impasse: Wolfe was stymied before Quebec; Gage was stalled at Oswego on Lake Ontario; and Jeffrey Amherst; the Commander in Chief, was at Crown Point awaiting the construction of his Lake Champlain fleet for his advance on Montreal via the Richelieu River.
