Publisher's Synopsis

""The French Adventurer: The Life and Exploits of Lasalle"" is a biography written by Constantin-Weyer and Maurice, chronicling the life of the famous French explorer, Ren�����-Robert Cavelier de La Salle. The book provides a comprehensive account of La Salle's life, from his early years as a young man in France, to his expeditions in North America and the Gulf of Mexico. La Salle was known for his exploration of the Mississippi River, which he claimed for France, and for his establishment of the colony of Louisiana. The book delves into La Salle's many adventures, including his encounters with Native American tribes, his battles with Spanish forces, and his eventual tragic death. ""The French Adventurer"" is a fascinating and detailed account of one of the most important figures in French exploration and colonial history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
