Book Description
Excerpt from History of New France, Vol. 1 of 3 Of Lescarbot's life not a great deal is known. Born at Vervins near Laon about 1570, he was given a good education, and then took up the study of law. During the negotiations which led to the treaty of Vervins, signed in May 1598, Lescarbot, though only Licentier es Droits, pronounced two Latin orations before the Papal Legate who had been sent by Clement VIII. to bring about this peace. In the first, delivered on May 14, Lescarbot thanked Cardinal Medici for his magnificent gifts to the church and town of Vervins, which latter, as the orator pointed out, had been thrice taken and sacked within the previous ten years. The second oration, pronounced on the 31st of May, is a general panegyric on the benefits of peace. As the treaty of Vervins put an end to a nine years' war with Spain, while giving to France herself domestic peace after some thirty-seven years of civil strife, Lescarbot did not lack subject-matter over which to wax eloquent. To the French edition of this second oration Lescarbot added a few original poems. Some of these are addressed to the two French plenipotentiaries, others to France, to Vervins, and to Madame de Coucy, the wife of the Seigneur of Vervins, who had frequently entertained the commissioners.

Book Description
Excerpt from History and General Description of New France, Vol. 5 of 6 The Count de Erontenac having expressed his determination to penetrate with all his forces into the very heart of Loquois country, there were several opinions as to the course to be adopted to ensure the success of so desired an expedition, and from which nothing less was expected than the end of a war which had several times brought the colony to the verge of ruin, which prevented its progress, and by favor of which the English considerably increased their commerce and established themselves powerfully on the continent of North America. They did not agree even as to the time to be selected for undertaking it. Many wished to swoop down on the canton of Onondaga with all the forces of the colony during the winter, in order to have all leisure completely to destroy in a single campaign all the other cantons; but the Chevalier de Callieres was not of this opinion. He declared to the General that he could not find men enough to march in snow-shoes, carry and draw ammunition and stores so far, and storm a town in the very heart of the enemy's country, where the Iroquois could easily rally in a short time all their warriors, and so intrench themselves as to keep the French army at bay for a long time.
