Wikipedia 28 October 2021: (Étienne-Michel Faillon (3 January 1800 – 25 October 1870) was a Catholic historian. He was born in Tarascon, France. He joined the Sulpicians and was ordained priest in 1824. In 1848, during an official visit to Montreal, he conceived the plan of his Histoire de la colonie française au Canada (History of the French Colony in Canada). Of the twelve intended volumes of this work, intended to embrace the entire period of French rule (1534–1759), only three were published, the narrative closing with the year 1675. He made further visits to Canada, and died in Paris.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89tienne-Michel_Faillon
