James Wolfe
James Wolfe was an English army officer best known for his training reforms and most remembered for his victory in 1759 over the French at the Battle of Abraham Plains in Quebec as a major general. The son of an outstanding general, Edward Wolfe, received his first posting as a young man and served extensively in Europe during the War of the Austrian Succession. His service in Flanders and Scotland, where he participated in the persecution of the Jacobite rebellion, brought him to the attention of his superiors. His career advancement was interrupted by the Peace Treaty of 1748 and he spent most of the next eight years in garrison service in the Scottish Highlands. Already a brigade major at the age of 18, he was 23 years old as a lieutenant colonel. The outbreak of the Seven Years' War in 1756 provided Wolfe with new opportunities for promotion.
