a. wolfe's loss on the cliff of Quebec b. Washington's defeat at Fort Necessity c. Amherst's fall at Louisburg d. Braddock's ambush near fort Duquesne ========================================================= Last time I checked, General Wolfe actually won the Battle of the Plains of Abraham at Quebec (although he died in the process). Furthermore, the Plains of Abraham were - and still are - in Quebec City, which is in the Province of Quebec, which is in Canada. As such, it is not 'on American soil.' Louisbourg (not Louisburg) was actually captured twice by the British from the French. Neither was a loss for the British, and there was not a third time. And furthermore, as above, Louisbourg was - and still is - on Cape Breton Island, which is part of the Province of Nova Scotia, which is in Canada. As such, it too is not 'on American soil.' I heartily recommend spending a day exploring the restored Fortress of Louisbourg. It's less than an hour south of Sydney, Nova Scotia.

How the French and Indian War was related to the Battle of Lexington and Concord?

The French and Indian War was a global war between France and England. In the American Colonies, the war was conducted with the French and their Indian allies on one side and the British and their American and Indian allies on the other. This was took place before the Revolutionary War and American colonists fought beside the British, not against them. In fact, George Washington had his first combat experience during this war. After the French and Indian War which was won by Britain, the American colonists became disenchanted with the British who they saw as not treatuing them as real Englishmnen despite their help for the British against the French. This perception on ingratitude, added to other complaints such as taxing the Colonies without any representation in Parliament, led to the American Revolution. Lexington and Concord were among the first real engagements of the Revolution.
