French General Francois de Lévis resolved to recover Quebec, lost six months earlier, and advanced from Montreal with over 8,000 men. He defeated British commander General James Murray outside Quebec at Saint-Foy and the heavily outnumbered British withdrew into the city under siege. They were eventually relieved by a naval squadron and Lévis retreated to Montreal.
