It consists of a collection of writings by Jesuit missionaries documenting their travels and experiences in New France from 1610 to 1791, focusing specifically on regions such as Quebec and interactions with Indigenous tribes like the Hurons. The texts provide valuable insights into the missionary efforts, cultural exchanges, and the challenges faced by the Jesuits during this period. The opening of this volume introduces the context of Jesuit missions in New France, particularly emphasizing the significance of establishing French colonies to support the missionary work among Indigenous peoples. Through letters and reports, the text highlights the missionaries' observations of the local tribes, including their customs, religious beliefs, and the struggles against famine and epidemics. The narrative describes several events, such as hunting expeditions, cultural interactions between the Jesuits and the Indigenous populations, and the joys and hardships faced by both missionaries and native tribes, setting the stage for further exploration of their interwoven lives in the ensuing chapters.
