The Plains of Abraham

The Plains of Abraham by James Oliver Curwood is a historical novel set in the latter half of the 18th century in New France, now part of Canada. The protagonist, Daniel "James" Bulain, son of a French habitant and an English schoolmaster's daughter, experiences a life-altering tragedy when his family and the people of a neighboring seigneurie are massacred by a Mohawk war party. In his subsequent escape into the wilderness, James is united with his childhood love, Toinette Tonteur, daughter of the local seigneur, when they are captured by a Seneca war party and taken to their hidden village. They are eventually adopted into the tribe. After their first winter with the Senecas, James believes Toinette has been killed and escapes to join the French forces under Montcalm.
