A DISCOVERER OF CANADA.—The story of Jacques Cartier, the explorer whose two voyages of discovery revealed Canada’s interior, is told in “The Man from St. Malo,”, by Robert D. Ferguson, and published by Macmillan. The drawings with which Douglas Sneyd illustrates the book bring vividly to the reader the life and adventures of a great explorer of the 16th century, and help to demonstrate that this man from a humble French fishing village has a place with such immortals as Columbus and the Cabots. The three drawings above illustrate incidents in the story.
