Summary: "Count Frontenac" by William Dawson LeSueur is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the life and times of Count Frontenac, a prominent governor of New France, exploring the dynamics of early colonial Canada during French rule. It delves into the socio-political landscape and the challenges that Frontenac faced in his governance. The opening of the book introduces readers to the historical context of Canada prior to Frontenac's arrival in 1672, highlighting the early French settlements and the development of the fur trade. It discusses key figures like Samuel de Champlain, who was instrumental in establishing French power in North America, as well as the precarious relations between the French settlers and Indigenous tribes.
