In this succinct dual biography, Laura Chmielewski demonstrates how
the lives of two French explorers - Jacques Marquette, a Jesuit
missionary, and Louis Jolliet, a fur trapper - reveal the diverse
world of early America. Following the explorers' epic journey
through the center of the American continent, Marquette and Jolliet
combines a story of discovery and encounter with the insights
derived from recent historical scholarship. The story provides
perspective on the different methods and goals of colonization and
the role of Native Americans as active participants in this complex
and uneven process.
