Foreword

Acknowledgements
 

I would like to express my gratitude to Monique Vandevelde, archivist at the municipal archives of Honfleur, who generously gave me access to Jean Marin Le Roy's log in 1992. This account could not have been written without her collaboration. I would also like to thank Yannick Lecherbonnier, acting regional curator of the Inventaire général in Caen, who allowed me to present Captain Gabriel Bellet's ex-voto. I am also very grateful to Michel Brisebois, curator of the rare book collection at the National Library of Canada, who supplied several of the maps in this work. Many thanks also to Paula Sousa for translating the text.
