The Siege of Montreal took place at the end of the French and Indian War in 1760. After the decisive British victory on the Plains of Abraham in 1759, British General Jeffrey Amherst coordinated the convergence of three British armies upon French-controlled Montréal. French governor Marquis de Vaudreuil instructed François Gaston de Lévis to surrender the indefensible city. French rule in North America had come to an end.
