Under Six Flags: The Story of Texas

By Mollie Evelyn Moore Davis, Mem Davis, Mollie E. Moore Davis

Book Overview

One morning early in the year 1684, Robert Cavalier, Sieur de la Salle, a gentleman in the King's service, stood waiting in an antechamber of the royal palace at Versailles (Ver-sālz′). Behind the closed door, which was guarded by two of the King's Musketeers in their showy uniforms, his Majesty Louis the Fourteenth was giving a private audience to the Count de Frontenac. This gentleman, late the governor of New France (Canada), was the friend and adviser of The Adventurer, as La Salle had been mockingly nicknamed by the idlers of the French court.
