  • ISBN : 1628469358
  • Pages : 284 pages

Download or read book La Salle and His Legacy written by Patricia K. Galloway and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-03-07 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To most people it probably seems that La Salle and his men, permanently fixed in the pantheon of explorers of the North American continent, need little further introduction. The fact is that this whole early period of exploration and colonization by the French in the southeastern United States has received far less scholarly attention than the corresponding English and Spanish activities in the same area, and even the existing scholarship has failed to focus clearly upon the Indian tribes whose attitudes toward the European new comers were crucial to their very survival. In this collection of essays marking the tricentennial of René-Robert Cavelier de La Salle's 1682 expedition into the Lower Mississippi Valley, thirteen scholars from a variety of disciplines assess his legacy and the significance of French colonialism in the Southeast. These scholars in the fields of French colonial history and the ethnohistory of the Indians of the Louisiana Colony deal with a diversity of topics ranging from La Salle's expedition itself and its place in the context of New World colonialism in general to the interaction of French settlers with native Indian tribes.

Book La Salle in the Valley of the St  Joseph

Download or read book La Salle in the Valley of the St Joseph written by Charles Henry Bartlett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from La Salle in the Valley of the St. Joseph: An Historical Fragment In the light of present knowledge, it is not possible to assert beyond all danger of cavil whether this or that particular Canadian French man first beheld the banks of the St. Joseph. Some have thought that Father Claude Allouez, a Jesuit priest and missionary, first knew of our river. Some have supposed that Father Mar quette once journeyed this way. But that either of them was entitled to the honor of discovery, is purely a matter of conjecture. It does, indeed, seem not unlikely that Allouez, who was with the Miami Indians in 1672, should have followed them from their Wisconsin home when they migrated to this valley. He was certainly here at a later date, devoting the clos 1ng years of his life to the work of the mission on the St. Joseph, where he died in 1690. But in the case of Father Marquette, there is not even good ground for conjecture, unless it be in the wish which we all share that the benison of a presence so gentle and gracious might have expressed the white man's first salutation to the bluffs and pebbly strands of our river. Then, there are the two adventurers, Radissonand Des Groseilliers, who explicitly declare that they themselves visited this entire region as early as 1659. This statement, however, is not generally believed by the historians. Some of the latter are probably not far from the truth in their intimation that many of the obscure Canadian voyageurs, in pursuit of the traffic in furs, and the wild coureurs de bois, while living with the Indians, may have been here before all others without leaving any record of their exploits. But if we are to satisfy ourselves with the positive assertions of unquestioned history, we must credit the discovery of the St. Joseph and the Kankakee rivers to the hero famous in American annals under the name of lasalle. His coming was late in the fall of 1679. A brief epitome of his career previous to that date may help us to keep in mind the motives that prompted his expedition and the circumstances that made it possible.

Book When the Game Stands Tall

Download or read book When the Game Stands Tall written by Neil Hayes and published by Frog Books. This book was released on 2005-08-23 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and updated edition of the book available in August 2014 to accompany the major motion picture directed by Thomas Carter and starring Jim Caviezel, Alexander Ludwig, Laura Dern, and Clancy Brown. By 2002, The Streak—a historic 13-year run of consecutive wins by the Spartans, a high-school football team from Concord, California, that couldn't be beat—was still going strong. In this revised edition of When the Game Stands Tall, author Neil Hayes, who had unrestricted access to the De La Salle team, writes from the inside about the games, the players, and their visionary coach, Bob Ladouceur, who managed to amass the highest winning percentage in football history (.995) through standing for something greater than winning. The book, which also features interviews with major sports figures like Bill Walsh and John Gruden, is a revealing portrait of the coach who believed above all in instilling basic life skills where winning is not the goal, but merely the byproduct of playing the game. The Streak had become a national story long before it ended in September 2004. In this revised paperback, Neil Hayes catches up on the lives of the main characters and takes readers through the final tumultuous year. What results is a timeless and inspirational story of struggle, tragedy, and triumph.
