    About this ebook

    Jean Baptiste, A Story of French Canada is a story by James Edward le Rossignol. Le Rossignol was a professor of economics and the author of several works of fiction based in Quebec. Excerpt:" It was a simple and oft-repeated story, but there was something in the voice and manner of Jean that compelled attention. All the children listened; also the teacher; and the visitor, M. Paradis, curé of the parish, was visibly impressed. He brought his horn-rimmed spectacles down from the top of his head, set them firmly on the bridge of his nose, and regarded Jean for some moments without saying a word."
