La Salle Expedition Impresses Frontier Scene on Lake Erie
In a narrative recalling early colonial exploration, French explorer Rene-Rlais La Salle leads a party along Lake Ontario and Lake Erie toward the Gulf of Mexico. A quarrel with a fellow sailor ends with the man overboard after a gauntlet clash, and the voyage proceeds with a small crew toward Quebec, amid lush autumn shorelines and fortifications like Fort Niagara.
