Three came to Ville Marie is probably Canadian author Alan
Sullivan's best known novel - it won the Governor General's Award
for English language fiction in 1941. As well as being a romantic
tale, it vividly captures the hardship of early settlers' lives in
Canada. It tells the story of a wealthy young French couple in the
time of Louis XIV, Paul and Jacqueline, whose engagement is broken
up by the arrival of the dashing Jules, who sweeps Jacqueline off
her feet. Broken-hearted, Paul sets out for the wild frontier of
New France, where the early colonists are embroiled in conflict
with the local tribes people. However, an indiscretion involving
Jacqueline and the King leads to the now married Jules and
Jacqueline also heading for Canada and back into Paul's life,
leading to struggles of an altogether different kind.
