Book Description
Excerpt from Famous Firesides of French Canada In offering this little volume to the kind consideration of Canadian and American readers, it is the earnest wish of the Author that it may commend itself to the interest of both, as the early histories of Canada and the United States are so closely connected that they may be considered identical. We have tried to recall the days when, by these firesides, were rocked the cradles of those who helped to make Canadian history, and to render more familiar the names and deeds of the great men, French, English and American, upon whose valour and wisdom such mighty issues depended. The recital is, we trust, wholly impartial and without prejudice.Ch�teau de Ramezay 19Heroes of the Past 30Chapel of Notre-Dame-de-la-Victoire 51Le S�minaire 56Cathedrals and Cloisters 58Massacre of Lachine 82Ch�teau de Vaudreuil 95Battle of the Plains 103Canada under English Rule 125American Invasion 144The Continental Army in Canada 155Fur Kings 192Interesting Sites 199Famous Names 203Echoes from the Past 212

Book Description
"[...] "Without doubt Frontenac was the most conspicuous figure which the annals of the early colonization of Canada affords. He was the descendant of several generations of distinguished men who were famous as courtiers and soldiers." He was of Basque origin and proud of his noble ancestry. He was born in 1620, and was distinguished by becoming the god-child of the King, the royal sponsor bestowing his own name on the unconscious babe, who was in after years to be a sturdy defender of France's dominions over the ocean. He became a soldier at the age of fifteen, and even in early youth and manhood saw active service and gave promise of gallantry and bravery.[...]".

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
