France and England in North America: A Series of Historical Narratives, Part Third: The Discovery of the Great West is a book written by Francis Parkman. This is the third part of a series of historical narratives that focus on the rivalry between France and England in North America. In this book, Parkman narrates the exploration and discovery of the Great West, which includes the Mississippi Valley, the Great Plains, and the Rocky Mountains. The book covers the period from the early 17th century to the late 18th century, during which French explorers, traders, and missionaries ventured westward in search of new territories and resources. The narrative is based on primary sources, including journals, letters, and official reports, and is written in a vivid and engaging style that brings the characters and events to life.Parkman describes the challenges and dangers faced by the explorers, such as hostile Native American tribes, harsh weather conditions, and unfamiliar terrain. He also explores the complex relationships between the French and the Native Americans, as well as the conflicts and alliances between different European powers. Overall, France and England in North America: A Series of Historical Narratives, Part Third: The Discovery of the Great West is a comprehensive and well-researched account of the exploration and discovery of the Great West, and an important contribution to the study of North American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
