The French and Indian War

How did the French lose the French and Indian War and the Seven Years War? The French lost because the English had more money. The French lost because they had half the men the English had. The Indians did ally more with the French, but money was being played too much. Money is always called in war. Money must be called in war.
How did the French lose? They used
different strategy. They built more forts, tried to win navy, and
tried to use regulars. The English fought everywhere. This was not
just a war for North America. This was a war for the world, and not
all is told about it.
I love the French and Indian War in many ways. The French and Indian War taught me young. It led to the Revolution for both America and France. The French beat the British with revolution, the colonies beat the English with Revolution.
How did the American win the French and Indian War? The Americans won in different ways: they were the colonists. They were not necessarily recruited: many wanted to win quebec, Canada, and the Louisiana. The end? The French lost, but not on every play.
Who won by navy?
I say navy won. The British navy is always stronger, but the French could win too. The book says the French always won: these are English books. How did the French win in the indies? How did the French win in India and the far east? How did the English lose by navy? The English won by navy at Louisbourgh, an island protecting the St. Lawrence river and protecting the French naval port.
The French were always losing at Nova Scotia: The French never lost here. The war was spanning.
What books should you read here? I recommend The Crucible of War, a classic history book on the French war. There are other books, some out of print, and many good.
