Hunting for the Mississippi

A gripping tale of survival and adventure in the New World. The year is 1684. Twelve-year-old Eustache Bréman leaves behind a life of misery begging on the streets of France for a second chance in the New World with his mom, his sweetheart Marie-Élisabeth, and Marie-Élisabeth's family. But life is tough, with plenty more tragedy and disappointment to come on De La Salle's ill-fated expedition to the Mississippi. As Eustache comes of age in Louisiana, he must navigate cultural conflicts, betrayal, and the ever-present threat of the unknown.
Join Eustache as he faces moral dilemmas, seeks revenge, and ultimately discovers his own identity and purpose, all in a sparkling English translation that's every bit as modern and playful as Camille Bouchard's original French. Perfect for young adults and adults who enjoy historical fiction, adventure stories, and tales of survival and exploration.
