Louis de Buade, Comte de Frontenac et de Palluau (1622-1698), was Governor-General of French Canada. In this 1877 installment of his monumental France and England in North America, Parkman documents the man’s early life, his rise to power, his arrival in Quebec, and his struggles against the Native Americans and British colonists.
Over de auteur
Francis Parkman (1823–1893) was one of America’s greatest historians and adventurers. He is best known for The Oregon Trail and his masterly seven-volume series, France and England in North America, which Edmund Wilson called ‘among the most brilliant achievements of the writing of history as an art.’ The annual prize awarded by the Society of American Historians is named after him.
