Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The First Great Canadian In this work for the first time an attempt is made to bring together with some approach to accuracy and continuity the scattered incidents in the life of Le Moyne d´Iberville. His activities were so various and were conducted in such widely separate arenas that it is not surprising that much confusion and obscurity surround his brief career. It is remarkable, however, that in the two centuries that have passed since his death no one in France or Canada, save only Desmazures, has made any adequate effort to commemorate and signalize the romantic and adventurous career of a man whose brave deeds and high ambitions brought wealth, vast territories, and great honor to those realms in whose behalf his life was spent. His feats of endurance and of achievement were so numerous and so extraordinary as to be wellnigh incredible if they were not sustained and vouched for by many unimpeachable testimonies.
