The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents, Vol. 5: Quebec, 1632-1633 by Thwaites
"The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents, Vol. 5: Quebec, 1632-1633" edited by Reuben Gold Thwaites is a chronicle written between 1632 and 1673. This volume contains annual reports from Jesuit missionaries in New France to their superiors, documenting their attempts to convert Indigenous peoples including the Huron, Montagnais, and Mohawk. These narratives, edited multiple times before publication, served dual purposes: raising funds for the missions and attracting settlers. They offer intimate glimpses
into Indigenous-European encounters, cultural immersion, and the complex realities of conversion efforts in colonial North America. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
