The Jesuits kept detailed records about their travels and observations in what is now New England and the Great Lakes region of United States and Canada. Providing a rich resource for materials, this set of writings contains the original French, Latin, and Italian texts plus English translations, notes, and a exhaustive analytical index. This 73-volume set was originally published 1896-1901, edited by Reuben Gold Thwaites.

There several sources for this material:

• Microopaque cards: please inquire at the First Floor Service Desk (M/Card, "Jesuit..."). The first few cards have general contents. The last two volumes comprise the analytical index.
• High-reduction microfiche; Jesuits, Library of American civilization (CB5 .L53x; fiche 21463-90). Between the two microform formats, the cards may be better for copying; please inquire.
• The Regional Campus Libraries, in particular, have hardcopy reprints of this series
