This story of an adventurous Frenchman on the old Northwest frontier is based in part on the brief family chronicle by Joseph Bailly's granddaughter, Frances R. Howe, The Story of a French Homestead in the old Northwest (Press of Nitschke Bros., Columbus, Ohio, 1907), and on references in early documents. The scant biographical material has been expanded and cast in the form of a novel. The writer has spent almost thirty of her summers a few miles northeast of the old Bailly trading post, which remains almost unchanged, with its cluster of log cabins and its picturesque original homestead, on the Little Calumet River, near Chesterton, Indiana. Through the years, the personality and the significance of Joseph Bailly have grown, until he stands beside the Calumet and passes along the fur trails from Quebec to New Orleans, a symbol of the transitions between the gallant French era along the Great Lakes, the American plowshare period and the beginnings of the rushing, commercial age. In reality, Bailly spanned all three periods and successfully adjusted the pattern of his life to each development. If he began somewhat as a flourisher of ""sword and cloak,"" he ended as a man of the people, an American pioneer. Many years of study of Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois history have served to place Bailly against the larger scenes in which he played his part, and to multiply his adventures. Most of the events depicted are real, most of the characters are real, even to the incredibly na contemporary,fiction,genre fiction,historical,historical fiction,literature and fiction Historical Fiction, Black Letter Press<
