From Mother to Son is an annotated translation of forty-one of the eighty-one extant full-length letters written Marie de l'Incarnation, founder of the Ursulines in Canada, to her son, Claude Martin, between 1640 and 1671. These collected letters reveal much about the early history of New France and the spiritual itinerary of one of the most celebrated mystics of the seventeenth century. Uniting these letters into a coherent whole is the distinctive and complicated relationship between an absent mother and her abandoned son.
