Father Marquette,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Father Marquette and the Great Rivers (Vision Book) (Paperback)
This book was an easy read. It was extremely amazing the ability of Father Marquette to learn all the native american languages that he did. His bravery, knowlegde of the Indians, and his thirst for teaching the word of God pulled him through many tough times. His travels into this pristine unknown area (except to the native americans that is)make this book hard to put down.
