Item French Louisiana: Early Explorations and Settlements 1673-1719(University of Alabama Libraries, 1949) Saleeby, Samir Shaheen; University of Alabama TuscaloosaThis study is an attempt to present the history of French Louisiana. The story begins with the early explorations of Jolliet, Marquette and La Salle; next comes a description of the Indians who populated the area. All the explorers who came into contact with these people were impressed by their manner of living and their institutional life. These early reports are consequently of value and interest both to the historian and the ethnographer.
