内容简介

In 1665 the Carignan-Salieres Regiment were sent to Canada by King Louis XIV to quell the Iroquois, whose attacks were strangling the colony's fur-based economy and threatening to destroy its tiny settlements. This text provides a detailed account of the Carignan-Salieres Regiment - the only 17th-century French infantry regiment ever to serve in Canada - presenting a clear narrative of its activities and a critical assessment of their significance.
