Partial description from Parks Canada: "Description of Historic Place. Fort Sainte Marie II National Historic Site of Canada is located within the Beausoleil First Nation land reserve along the southern shore of Christian Island on Georgian Bay in Ontario. The site consists of a clearing bordered by trees some modern homes and the shoreline of Georgian Bay. Low-lying cobble walls probably created by 20th century rock piling delineate the footprint of the square fort as well as its corner bastions. Also included on the site is a large unused Huron burial pit. Over time natural factors have slightly altered the original setting such as the effects of shoreline erosion. The designation refers to the footprint of the fort. Heritage Value Fort Sainte Marie II was designated as a national historic site of Canada because: established in 1649 it was the last Jesuit mission for the Huron-Wendat in this area; it was abandoned by the missionaries in 1650 when they fled to Quebec with some Huron-Wendat supporters; the remaining Huron-Wendat made their last stand against the Iroquois from this fort in 1651 before fleeing to Quebec. Fort Sainte Marie II was constructed in 1649 following the destruction of the former Jesuit mission of Sainte-Marie Among the Hurons Mission National Historic Sites of Canada on the Wye River. The new fort was settled from June 1649 to June 1650 by Jesuit Missionaries French soldiers and Huron-Wendat who had fled from the Wye River mission station after confrontations with Five Nations bands and the Dutch who together sought to break the Huron-Wendat control of northern fur resources." Found in several prominent libraries primarily in Canada but very scarce on the open market. Just a little toning of the covers. Near fine. Sanctuaire des Bienheureus Martyrs Canadiens unknown
