| Summary | "Heroes of the Middle West: The French" by Mary Hartwell Catherwood is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work explores the French discovery and occupation of the American Midwest, focusing on key figures such as Father Jacques Marquette and Louis Jolliet. The book likely delves into the interactions between French explorers and Native American tribes, shedding light on the cultural and historical significance of these early encounters. The beginning of the book introduces readers to Father Marquette and Jolliet as they embark on their expedition on May 17, 1673. Their mission is twofold: to spread their religion among the native tribes and to explore the mysterious Great River, later known as the Mississippi. The opening portion details their departure from St. Ignace, emphasizing the stunning natural scenery, Marquette's background, and the adventurous spirit driving their journey. As they navigate the waterways, the narrative sets the stage for their encounters with various Indian tribes and the challenges they will face in unexplored lands.
