Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Golden Dog (Le Chien D'or): A Romance of the Days of Louis Quinze in Quebec
Louisburg, the bulwark of New France, projecting its mailed arm boldly into the Atlantic, had been cut off by the English, who now overran Acadia, and began to threaten Quebec with invasion by sea and land. Busy rumors of approaching danger were rife in the colony, and the gallant Governor issued orders which were enthusiastically obeyed, for the people to proceed to the walls and place the city in a state of defence; to bid defi ance to the enemy.
