The volume assembles all available materials associated with Fort Frontenac, which was the first military establishment in Ontario and stood at present-day Kingston. English translations as well as transcriptions of original French documents are provided. Sections address the Quinte mission, begun by the Sulpicians in 1668, the establishment of Fort Frontenac in 1673, the Sieur de La Salle, war with the Iroquois, the re-establishment of Fort Frontenac, a half-century of uneasy peace, and the fall of Fort Frontenac in 1758. Kingston's history is continued in another volume in the Ontario series, Kingston before the War of 1812.
