Within this narrative of a married couple and their legal fight - based on French manuscripts and supported by the comprehensively annotated 1726 Illinois census - is also the story of the village of Kaskaskia during the 1720s, of the war between Fox Indians and French settlers, and of how the spread of plow agriculture transformed Illinois.
