DISCOVERY AND EXPLORATION

Of the Mississippi Valley. With the Original Narratives of Marquette,
Allouez, Membré, Hennepin, and Anastase Douay. By
John Gilmary Shea. With a fac-simile of the Original Map
of Marquette. 1 vol., 8vo.; Cloth. Antique. $2.00.

"A volume of great and curious interest to all concerned to know the early history
of this great Western land."

—Cincinnati Christian Herald.

"We believe that this is altogether the most thorough work that has appeared on the
subject to which it relates. It is the result of long-continued and diligent research, and
no legitimate source of information has been left unexplored. The work combines the
interest of romance with the authenticity of history."

—Puritan Recorder.

"Mr. Shea has rendered a service to the cause of historical literature worthy of all
praise by the excellent manner in which he has prepared this important publication for
the press."

—Boston Traveller.
