Excerpt from History of the Discovery of the Northwest by John Nicolet in 1634: With a Sketch of His Life In the following pages, I have attempted to record, in a faithful manner, the indomitable perseverance and heroic bravery displayed by John Nicolet in an ex'ploration which resulted in his being the first of civilized men to set foot upon any portion of the Northwest; that is, upon any part of the territory now constituting the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illi nois, Michigan, and Wisconsin. It is shown how he brought to the knowledge of the world the existence of' a fresh-water sea - Lake Michigan - beyond and to the westward of Lake Huron; how he visited a number of Indian nations before unheard of; how he penetrated many leagues beyond the ut most verge of previous discoveries, with an almost reckless fortitude, to bind distant tribes to French interests; and how he sought to find an ocean, which, it was believed, was not a great distance westward of the St. Lawrence, and which would prove a near route to China and Japan.
