We can't turn the page on the seventeenth century without covering in depth the fascinating exploits, momentous discoveries, monumental battles, and adventurous saga of Count Frontenac and New France under Louis XIV. Frontenac (1622-98) was a French aristocrat, soldier and Governor General of New France in North America. He established a number of Forts on the shores of the Great Lakes and engaged in a series of battles against the English and the Iroquois Confederacy for control of the fur trade. Governor Frontenac's initiatives helped solidify French claims and influence stretching from Lake Superior to the Mississippi River, pushing French territorial boundaries along the future American-Canadian border and further into the interior of North America.
