They Came to Stay : 9781779621665

In the face of all odds, the tenacity of the mid 17th century settlers of New France enabled them to become a force strong enough to become the unique francophone nation that they are today inside the great nation of Canada. A nation that owes its very existence to these first French settlers.

The tale is told through the true lives of Pierre Tremblay and Ozanne Achon, the progenitors of the largest French Canadian family in North America. Staying true to their documented events, the blanks have been filled with pure fiction allowing them a life of danger and adventure, a life they may not have lived... or did they?
