This essay explores the way British history has dealt with the Conquest of Quebec and its aftermath, 1760-74, over the last seventy-five years or so. The first part of the essay is an analysis of why accounts of the Conquest and the passage of the Quebec Act used to play a central role in any history of Hanoverian Britain, prior to the Second World War; then, conversely, how these same events barely warrant a mention in present day texts and monographs. The second part of the essay offers three previously neglected themes through which the debate about Quebec's importance to the cause of Hanoverian studies might be revivified and some corrections to current misconceptions about these events initiated
