408.---- Nova Francia; or the description of that part of New France which is one continent with Virginia; described in the three last voyages and plantation made by Monsieur de Monts; M. De Pont-Grave, and M. de Poutrincourt, into the countries, called by the Frenchmen La Cadie, lying to the S. W. of Cape Breton; together with an excellent Treatie of all the commodities of the said countries, and manners of the naturall inhabitants of the same; translated out of French into English, by P. E.: London, 1609, small 4to.
"The dedication is signed P. Erondelle, who, in an address to the reader, says, 'that the whole volume of the navigation of the French nation into the West Indies (comprised in three Books) was brought to him to be translated, by Mr. Richard Hakluyt, by whom this part was selected and chosen from the whole work, for the particular use of this nation, to the end, that comparing the goodness of the lands of the northerly parts herein mentioned, with that of Virginia, which must be far better, by reason it stands more southerly, neerer to the sun, greater encouragement may be given to prosecute that generous and godly action, in planting and peopling that country, to the better propagation of the Gospel of Christ, the salvation of innumerable souls, and general benefit of this land, too much pestered with over many people. No mention is made of Lescarbot in this work, which is, in fact, a translation of one half of the work of that author--(The Edition of 1609)--from the 31st chapter of the 2nd book to the end of the third and last."--Rich's Bib.

En Français sous ce titre:
413.---- Voyages chez différentes Nations Sauvages de l'Amérique-Septentrionale; renfermant des détails curieux sur les moeurs, usages, cérémonies religieuses, le système militaire, &c. des Cahnuagas, des Indiens des Cinq et Six Nations, Mohawks, Connecedagas, Iroquois, &c., des Indiens Chippeways, et autres Sauvages de divers tribus; sur leurs langues, les pays qu'ils habitent, ainsi que sur le commerce de pelleteries et fourrures qui se fait chez ces peuples; avec un état exact des postes situés sur le Fleuve Saint-Laurent, le Lac Ontario, &c. Traduits de l'Anglais, avec des notes et additions intéressantes, par J. B. L. J. Billecocq: Paris, 1794. 1 vol. in-8; avec une carte.
"Les détails donnés par Long, sur les peuplades Indiennes, ne sont pas aussi complets que ceux des Voyageurs Français; ses courses ne se sont pas étendues aussi loin; mais sa relation, étant assez récente, fait connaître l'état moderne de ces peuplades bien diminuées de ce quelles étaient autrefois. Les Vocabulaires qu'il donne de leurs divers dialectes sont précieux, et il est à regretter qu'on ne les ait pas insérés dans la traduction Française."--Biog. Univ.
