1. Crosses In The Sky
"Crosses in the Sky" by Mark Bourrie delves into the life of Jesuit missionary Jean de Brébeuf and the history of the colonization of Huronia, the land of the Huron-Wendat nation. The book explores the reasons behind the Jesuits' journey to "New France," their experiences upon arrival, and the lasting impact of these early interactions on relationships between settlers and Indigenous peoples. Moving beyond traditional narratives, it examines both Brébeuf's life and the broader implications of his colonial legacy, offering a nuanced perspective on Canadian history.
