Abstract: " ... this reader appears first independently, in the hope that it will appeal to all who desire to read easy French narrative, while enjoying vivid glimpses of early North America and its inhabitants, as seen through the keen eyes of French missionary and explorer. These extracts deal with the east and center of the continent ..."--Page vii.
Notes: "These extracts deal with the east and center of the continent ... [and] are taken from the Jesuit relations, in Thwaites's edition ... and from Margry's collection of documents in the archives of the French Ministry of marine ... The notes [p. 344-369] are designed to explain puzzling allusions, especially to persons and places, and such French words as are not to be found in the ordinary school French dictionary."- Pref.
