Description

Hungry for adventure, young Sieur de La Salle didn’t think twice before leaving the priesthood in France and setting sail for the New World at the tender age of 22. Young readers will be fascinated by this new book which chronicles his success leading a colony in New France in the late 1600s and his search for an easy route through North America to the Pacific Ocean. A recipe from the period is also included.
