Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pageant of Saint Lusson, Sault Ste, Marie, 1671: An Address Delivered at the Annual Commencement of the University of Michigan, Thursday, June 30, 1892 We will lift the curtain, if you please, on a wild pageant in the early history of Michigan. The scene is at the Sault Ste. Mario in 1671. But first, we must needs understand the conditions which had brought events to such a pass that a representative of the French king, just at this time and precisely at this spot, had found it meet to proclaim the sovereignty of France over a vast area where France possesses to-day not a rood of territory. The discovery of America, and discovery in America for over three centuries, were the pursuit of a chimera. The illusion which had brought Columbus across the forbidding waste of water was the vision of a short water-way to Cathay.
