The book found via the following link is an 1867 history of the Jesuits in North America during the 17th century. Although filled with the stereotypes European had of Native Americans at the time, the book is a very interesting document of the influence (positive and negative) of the Jesuits on the Native Americans of North America. The multi-volume work is organized chronologically and by nation/region and is essential reading for anyone interested in the Catholic Church and the native peoples of North America. Much of the historical background for SKIN OF THE WOLF involves Native Americans and the Jesuit missions in North America. The full text of the book can be found here.
