These chronicles, published here together, present a history of the Mississippi and Missouri Valleys and the people who inhabited those areas. In addition, this is the bilingual biography of a fascinating man, sharing how Lorimier left New France, drawn by adventure and the fur trade south of the Great Lakes, to eventually become commander of the Cape Girardeau trading post. After being born under the French crown, Lorimier was successively made a British subject, a Spanish subject, and finally an American citizen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLinda Clark Nash \u003c\/b\u003eis a historian, an administrator, and an educator with more than 31 years of experience.
