Atotarho and the French

This drama of yesteryear touches the lives of three amazing Frenchmen and one mystical being. Three extraordinary eras existed for the French in the New World. During the early 17th Century Samuel de Champlain the great explorer established New France at Quebec, conquering fierce winters, starvation and savages. A half century later, Count Frontenac the stalwart European commander defended Quebec beating back English Colonists and decimating the Iroquois Confederation. Still later in the 18th. Century, le Marquis de Montcalm the master battlefield strategist defeated the English Army at every encounter until the fatal one at Quebec. Each Frenchman encountered the most extraordinary being of their lifetime, facing a force heretofore unimagined. The force was known as Atotarho, the unpredictable God of the Iroquois who amused and misused those who crossed his path.
