Description: This book, part of the Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents series, offers an in-depth look at the Jesuit missions in 17th century New France. It presents the second installment of a significant document that chronicles the efforts of missionaries in their interactions with various Indigenous tribes. The author, Barthelemy Vimont, provides valuable insights into the challenges and achievements encountered by the Jesuits as they sought to spread Christianity among the Indigenous peoples of Canada. This particular installment focuses on the Sillery mission and offers detailed observations of the missionaries' experiences, the Indigenous peoples' way of life, and the complex dynamics between them. The record provides a firsthand account of early colonial encounters and the profound impact of European missionaries on Indigenous communities. As an invaluable resource for historians, anthropologists, and anyone interested in the history of Canada and the role of religion in shaping cultural interactions, this book offers a rich and nuanced exploration of this pivotal period in North American history.
