Gentlemen and Jesuits: Glory and Adventure in the Early Days of Acadia - by Elizabeth Jones
The founding and survival of the Port Royal Habitation are recreated in this evocative account of the lives of its people; the impecunious nobleman Jean de Biencourt, sieur de Poutrincourt, who held Port Royal as his fief; the Jesuit missionaries, Father Pierre Biard and Enemond Masse, sent out by the French crown and endowed with court funds; the literary lawyer Marc Lescarbot, who produced the first theatrical production in North America and the magnificent Membertou, sagamo of the local Mi’kmaq.
