Nova Scotia: Fulcrum of the Seven Years War — In 1754 Britain and France were about to go to war again. Events in Europe and America virtually dictated it. But what neither nation knew was that this time it would last seven years — from 1756 to 1763 — and escalate into a world war that would change that world permanently. Seven years full of drama — much of it in its early years — was acted out in Nova Scotia. This trip which will kick off at the Lord Nelson Hotel in Halifax with a Seven Years War briefing by trip leader Historian Guide Brian Cuthbertson and a dinner hosted by HistoryAmerica..
