D'Iberville

Another plan, scarcely less absurd, was proposed about the same time by the celebrated Le Moyne d'Iberville.

In 1697, as we shall see, d'Iberville will again be in their waters and attacking these forts.

From all these notable sons, d'Iberville stands out giantlike; his actions being almost legendary in their records of heroism.

Even Le Moyne d'Iberville had such visions and drew up a memoir on the project.

But surely D'Iberville must have ruled in Louisiana more than one hundred years ago?
