Reviews

[Clayton P. · Rating 4 out of 5]

Following the second and third volumes of the Chronicles series, this fourth volume adds France into the annals of the New World. Whereas the preceding volumes placed Spain and England at the forefront of the the discovery and development of the new age, this book focuses rather on the struggles and strains that France endured in its journey to make its presence in the developing New World along side the other world powers of the day. Again this fourth volume becomes a well written explanation of the politics and reasonings of not only the struggles of founding a colony but also the resulting problems of governance and industry, providing exhaustive details regarding these things and simply about life in a fledgling colony in a small amount of pages.

Excellent short book but it is a bit out of date.

[Daniel · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a splindid little set. everything you might want or need to know about the colinizatio of Quebec, including the exclusion of the Huguenot.
