This Plan contains a very correct Topographical Map of the Country on the North Side of the River St Lawrence, from _Pointe a Puiseaux_ to L'Ange Gardien, and on the South Side, from below Point Levi Church, to opposite _l'Anse des Mères_, including the Parish of Quebec, part of Charlesbourg, Beauport, St. Pierre, Island of Orleans and St. Joseph of Pointe Levi. The whole of the beaches, to low water, are accurately laid down, as well as every stream, ravine and eminence, a Plan of the Town and Fortifications, all the Redoubts, Entrenchments and Batteries erected by the French, the different positions of the Ships of War and Boats employed at the landing of the Troops; the position of the English and French Forces, viz: on the Island of Orleans, Pointe Levi and below the Falls of Montmorency: at the Attack on the French Entrenchments at Beauport, the Landing at Wolfe's Cove (_le Foulon_ or Fulling Mill) and on the Plains, or "Heights of Abraham." The name or number of each Ship and Regiment of the French and English Forces is marked at the respective positions they occupied at different dates; and various names of localities are preserved which have fallen into disuse. The Plan is on a scale of 800 feet to an English inch. The Surveys were the work of Captain DEBEIG, of the Engineer in Ordinary, and Captains HOLLAND and DESBARRES of the Royal American Engineers, all of WOLFE'S Army.
The references on the Map are a description of the Field Works of the French and a short Account of the Battle on the Plains, given with perfect exactness; even the hour of the different movements and the character of the different firings are recorded. No description of WOLFE'S Campaign at Quebec, could give so accurate an idea of it as is derived from this Plan, and without it the best description would be very imperfect.
