BLAZING THE WAY WEST

by Bliss Iseley ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 25, 1939

This makes exciting reading as history or adventure -- a new slant on the growth of this, our country, in the contribution made to expansion by the French. Lured by the fishing, then the fur trade, this follows the frontier smashing by explorers, traders, hunters, colonizers, etc. All the famous names are there, -- Frontenao, La Salle, Cadillac, Champlain, Marquette, Jolliet, Cartier, etc., together with others not so familiar. Plus sale for school and college reading shelves.
