Jean Nicolet, 1618-1642 is a book written by Auguste Gosselin and published in 1893. The book is a biography of Jean Nicolet, a French explorer who lived from 1618 to 1642. Nicolet is best known for his exploration of what is now Wisconsin and the Great Lakes region of North America. The book begins with Nicolet’s early life in France and his decision to become an explorer. It then follows his journey to Quebec, where he worked as an interpreter for the French fur trade. The book describes Nicolet’s travels through the Great Lakes region, where he made contact with various Native American tribes and established French trade relations. Gosselin also explores Nicolet’s personal life, including his marriage to a Native American woman and his relationships with other explorers and traders. The book provides a detailed account of Nicolet’s death, which occurred during an expedition to what is now Green Bay, Wisconsin. In addition to Nicolet’s life story, the book also provides historical context for his explorations. Gosselin discusses the French fur trade, the conflicts between Native American tribes, and the broader political and economic landscape of 17th century North America. Overall, Jean Nicolet, 1618-1642 is a comprehensive biography of an important figure in North American exploration and French colonial history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
