Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter recounts the most important operations in North America: the capture of Louisbourg, Quebec and Montreal, and with it, the elimination of a French presence in Canada. It first discusses the promotion of James Wolfe to brigadier and his deployment to America on the advice of General Sir John Ligonier, whom William Pitt, as the new prime minister, had asked to replace Cumberland as captain-general of the British Army. The chapter also elaborates on the promotion of Jeffrey Amherst to major general to command the expedition, mentioning that Wolfe was too junior for overall command. Amherst and Wolfe had very different views on the planning and prosecution of war. Where Amherst saw the need for caution, good intelligence and detailed planning of operations to bring about battle in optimal circumstances, Wolfe's self-education and military experiences had inculcated the requirement for decision and action. As the chapter emphasizes, this subtle but crucial difference in approach would define the campaign to conquer New France.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
