Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Great Lakes For three hundred years the Great Lakes have been the centre of an immensely varied and interesting history. They were originally the home of savages; they were discovered and explored by Frenchmen; they became the scene of a century-long struggle for possession by Indians of many tribes and white men of three nations; and they have been finally occupied and developed by Americans. In every epoch they present a rich field for study. No minute and exhaustive chronicle has been attempted in this volume, but important events, with the customs and life of each period, have been brought together and presented. Changes have come with such rapidity that the conditions of fifty years ago seem remote to-day. In this swift progress the heritage of the past must not be forgotten.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of the Great Lakes Ess than fifty years after Columbus discovered America, Frenchmen, also seeking a route to China, began exploring the Saint Lawrence River. Indians told them there were great seas beyond. So there were, and regions richer than all the Indies, but no ancient cities with paved streets, no courtiers and schol ars. On the lonely shores of Lake Michigan young Jean Nico let donned a gorgeous Chinese silk robe to approach the Great Khan, but only Winnebago Indians greeted him. French missionaries were the first whites to come and live among the hostile savages. In the harsh northern wilderness Champlain built the fort of Quebec as a way-station between France and China. The French did not know it, but they themselves were bringing civilization to a country whose men were few and savage.

Provided with smoked meat and Indian corn, they embarked on May I7, 1673, with five men in two canoes. Paddling westward, they passed the Strait of Mackinac, crossed the northern section of Lake Michigan and reached a village of the Menominee or Green Bay Indians, who, unwilling to lose their position as middlemen in the fur trade, did their utmost to dis suade them from their journey with tales of natives who never Show mercy toward strangers, of horrible monsters, which de voured men and canoes together and of heat so excessive that it would inevitably cause our death.
