Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The St. Lawrence River: Historical, Legendary, Picturesque While the St. Lawrence River has been the scene of many important events connected with the discovery and development of a large portion of North America, no attempt has before been made to collect and embody in one volume a complete and comprehensive narrative of this great waterway. This is not denying that considerable has been written relating to it, and some of this told in an interesting and painstaking manner, but the various offerings have been scattered through many volumes, and most of these have soon become inaccessible to the general reader. Sir J. M. LeMoine, F.R.S.C., of Quebec, who has done so much to give the St. Lawrence place in the literature of Canada, says of this noble river: It lies for a thousand miles between two great nations, yet neglected by both, though neither would be so great without it, - a river as grand as the La Plata, as picturesque as the Rhine, as pure as the Lakes of Switzerland... The noblest, the purest, most enchanting river on all God´s beautiful earth ... has never yet had a respectable history, nor scarcely more than an occasional artist to delineate its beauties.
