The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents, Vol. 7: Quebec, Hurons, Cape Breton,…

"The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents, Vol. 7: Quebec, Hurons, Cape Breton" is a collection of missionary chronicles written annually between 1632 and 1673. These reports document Jesuit efforts to convert Indigenous North American tribes including the Huron, Montagnais, and Mohawk. Originally written in French, Latin, and Italian, the accounts were edited and published to attract settlers and funding for New France missions. The texts reveal complex Indigenous-European encounters, though scholars debate their accuracy given their fundraising purpose and European cultural biases.
