Manhattanville goes
to Quebec
The History Department's annual field trip ventured for the first time
outside of these United States and into the True North, Strong and Free,
Canada, to visit Ville de Quebec, April 22-24. Such
famous historical names as Jacques Cartier & Samuel de Champlain were
instrumental in its founding. though to those educated in schools in the
United States, the most familiar historical event associated with the
locale took place, as every schoolchild used to learn, on the "Plains
of Abraham" in 1759 when British General Wolfe defeated French
General Montcalm, thus determining British political control, though
continuing French cultural dominance. 39 of us visited the windy La
Citadelle,
completed in 1831 and the Chateau Frontenec, completed in 1893 Quebec
City's first steel frame building, and the site of the famous World War II
conference between US President Franklin D. Roosevelt & British Prime
Minister Winston Churchill. The nearby, thundering falls of
Parc de la Chute-Montmorency provided the scene of our second and final day among the Québécois.
