In 1653 a young French woman from the provincial capital of Troyes boarded a ship headed for the New World — a wilderness that was to become the city of Montreal. Traveling alone, she journeyed with the first hundred men who were early recruits destined to give their lives to establish the colony of Ville-Marie and over the next forty-seven years she became one of the most important figures in Canadian history.
