Montcalm-Gozon, Louis-Joseph de (1712–1759)
French general, appointed military commander in Canada in 1756. He won a succession of victories over the British during the French and Indian War, but was defeated in 1759 by James Wolfe at Québec on the Plains of Abraham, where both he and Wolfe were killed; this battle marked the end of French rule in Canada.
