Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When Canada Was New France The Great War has had a special meaning for Canadians. Soldiers from our shores, citizen-soldiers, have been landing on the northern coast of France in tens of thousands, and passing through the same seaport towns whence nearly four hundred years ago men sailed forth to the westward to discover a fabled land. This country, discovered by the French and colonized by them and by the English, this land which was now French and now English as the fortune of war changed in Europe as well as in America, has become a nation, and when the time of trial came and danger threatened the ancestral homes in the two Motherlands, Canada hesitated not a moment but offered her services in the cause of freedom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Quebec: The Fortress of New France Frenchmen turned to their over - sea dominions with imaginative hope, with conviction that the great continent of promise would renew in France the glories that were Greece and the grandeur that was Rome. How hard the patriotic colonists strove to retain those territories which Champlain, La Salle, Maisonneuve, Joliet, and so many others won through nameless toil and martyrdom, and how at last the broad lands passed to another race and another flag, not by fault or folly or lack of courage of the people, but by the criminal corruption of the ruling few, is the narrative which runs through these pages.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bells of Old Quebec, and Other Poems of New France The subjects treated of in this little book of poems are all french-canadian, and most of them belong to the earliest portion of the history of Canada. All Canadians worthy of the name should study' closely the story of the men and events of early Canada, - the Canada of the French re' gime, which is often called New France. It is, perhaps the most romantic and the most inter esting part of the history of Canada. It takes in a rather long period, for, from the coming of Jacques Cartier in 1534, to the capture of Quebec by the British under 'wolfe, in 1759, there elapsed an interval of 225 years. That is how long the French were in Canada ahead of anybody else. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diane of Ville Marie: A Romance of French Canada In dealing with historical events and characters it seems only fair to the reader to avow what liberties have been taken with facts, and to state exactly to what extent this tale is founded upon history. The Le Ber family were prominent figures among their contemporaries. Jacques Le Ber, brother - in-law to the redoubtable Charles Le Moyne, was one of the richest merchants of New France. A hardy and intrepid soldier, he was ennobled by Louis XIV. In 1696. In speaking of him M. Dollier de Casson says: M. Jacques Le Ber has in this way rendered valuable services to the colony, exposing himself very often in canoe, on the ice, or in the woods, carrying despatches.

Download or read book Stories of New France written by Agnes Maule Machar and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of New France: Being Tales of Adventure and Heroism From the Early History of Canada The seventeenth century may be called the heroic age of Canada. The infant colony had to struggle for existence against pitiless enemies and forces of nature strange and well-nigh insurmountable. The struggle brought out a race of heroes whose names no one in the Old or New World should willingly let die. Champlain, Maisonneuve, Daulac, La Salle remind us of Arthur's Knights of the Round Table. Le Jeune, Jogues, Brbeuf, Lallemant consecrated the colony by lives of noblest endeavor and heroic death. Their memories belong to the Church universal. Their names are worthy of a place in any martyrology. The object of this volume is to make the past of Canada better known, to those at least who have not leisure or opportunity to study the glowing pages of Parkman. Writers who follow him must consult his works. But few have the time to read through ten or twelve volumes about one period in the history of Canada. These stories deal with the time in question through episodes round which cluster all the most interesting details. The voyages of Jacques Cartier, the colonizing of Acadie, Quebec and Montreal, the wars with the Iroquois, the story of the Jesuit missions, the adventures of La Salle, the tale of Evangeline and the last siege of Quebec - so crowded with incident - include the chief points of interest in early Canadian history. For convenience these stories have been divided into two series. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Great Canadian In this work for the first time an attempt is made to bring together with some approach to accuracy and continuity the scattered incidents in the life of Le Moyne d'Iberville. His activities were so various and were conducted in such widely separate arenas that it is not surprising that much confusion and obscurity surround his brief career. It is remarkable, however, that in the two centuries that have passed since his death no one in France or Canada, save only Desmazures, has made any adequate effort to commemorate and signalize the romantic and adventurous career of a man whose brave deeds and high ambitions brought wealth, vast territories, and great honor to those realms in whose behalf his life was spent. His feats of endurance and of achievement were so numerous and so extraordinary as to be wellnigh incredible if they were not sustained and vouched for by many unimpeachable testimonies.
