Book Description

Excerpt from The Sieur De Monts National Monument, Vol. 9: As Commemorating Acadia and Early French Influences of Race and Settlement in the United States Had France, moved by the spirit of Henry IV and de Monts, made some present sacrifice to consolidate what their and other early enterprise had won instead of plunging again upon the death of Henry into factional politics and religious strife, she probably and not anglo-saxon nations would have controlled the larger destinies and development of this continent.
