Description

Excerpt from An Historical Atlas of Canada: Edited With Introduction, Notes, and Chronological Tables Another group of maps is devoted to wars and rebellions - the Seven Years' War, with the sieges of Louis bourg and Quebec and the battle of Ticonderoga; the War of 1812 - 14 with its principal engagements; and the Rebellions of 1870 and 1885. The earlier Rebellion of 1837 - 38 and the Fenian Raids may be studied with the aid of Maps Nos. 32, 62, and 63. The heroic efforts of the Jesuit Fathers to bring Christianity to the Indians are illustrated in the Huronia map. The missions were not of course confined to Huronia, but the same spirit that animated the work on Georgian Bay inspired all the missions in the days of New France. And one may add with every confidence that, while the missionaries of all denominations in Western Canada have not had to face martyrdom, they too would have shown the same dauntless spirit if fate had demanded it of them.
