Product Overview
Father Jacques Marquette was just one of the man missionaries and voyageurs who traveled to New France more than 300 years ago in search of new converts and new lands. After founding Sault Ste. Marie and St. Ignace, Marquette set forth on his greatest adventure--a journey with Louis Jolliet down the Mississippi River. Marquette's writings reveal his enthusiasm for discovery, his devotion to his faith and his interest in the Native American peoples he encountered.
