About the Book

Extrait: LA TÊTE PLATE CHAPITRE PREMIER LES CAPTIFS -Les Chinouks sont des femmelettes. Ils ne savent pas plus vaincre leurs ennemis que les torturer. Moi, j'ai tué deux fois quatre de leurs guerriers. -Tu as menti, Queue-de-Serpent, répliqua un des chefs, en frappant le prisonnier de son tomahawk. Un flot de sang jaillit de la blessure que celui-ci avait reçue au visage. Sans pousser une plainte, il continua: -Oui, dans ma cabane, pendent les chevelures de deux fois quatre de ceux que les Chinooks appellent leurs braves sont morts en pleurant comme des daims timides. Un nouveau coup de tomahawk l'atteignit à la poitrine. Les muscles frémirent, ses dents grincèrent et des gouttes de sueur perlèrent son front, mais la douleur ne lui arracha aucun cri, aucun mouvement convulsif. -Les Chinouks, poursuivit-il stoïquement, ont le bras aussi faible que l'esprit. C'est du sang de lièvre qui gonfle leur coeur. Comment pourraient-ils triompher des vaillants Clallomes, eux qui ne peuvent les renverser quand les Clallomes sont attachés? J'ai enlevé ta femme, Oeil-de-Carcajou, et elle m'a servi comme esclave. A ces mots, l'indien qu'il interpellait bondit de fureur. Tirant de sa gaine un long couteau, il se précipita sur le captif pour l'en percer. Un de ses compagnons l'arrêta. -Non, ne le tue pas encore, lui dit-il; nous lui montrerons comment les Chinooks traitent les hiboux de son espèce. Et, saisissant un bâton enflammé qui se consumait sur un brasier voisin, il flamba les jambes de sa victime, tandis que Oeil-de-Carcajou lui faisait de larges entailles dans le ventre en vociférant: -Si tu as rendu ma femme esclave, je rendrai la tienne veuve, et je mangerai ta chair pour en jeter le reste aux chiens. -Mange-la donc; car tu en as besoin pour te donner le courage qui te manque, reprit froidement le Clallome. Oeil-de-Carcajou lui enlevait, pendant ce temps, une large portion de la cuisse et la dévorait sanglante... Aller à navigation, rechercher Henri-Émile Chevalier, né le 13 septembre 1828 à Châtillon-sur-Seine, mort le 26 août 1879 à Paris, est un homme de lettres français. Ayant porté les armes, Chevalier dut s'exiler à la suite du coup d'État du 2 décembre 1851, et séjourna en cette qualité aux États-Unis, où il a donné des feuilletons dans le Courrier des États-Unis, à Montréal où il a écrit dans des journaux démocratiques et occupé le poste de bibliothécaire de l'Institut Canadien. Pendant son séjour en Amérique, il a publié un grand nombre de romans édités à Montréal et plusieurs ouvrages sur la Géologie américaine. Il a traduit de l'anglais le Foyer canadien, de Knot, publié l'Art de la beauté paru sous le nom de Lola Montez, et donné une nouvelle édition de l'Histoire du Canada, du frère Gabriel Sagard-Théodat. Il a aussi dirigé la Chasse illustrée. Ayant accepté l'amnistie en 1860, il écrivit des nouvelles dans des journaux, comme le Pays et L'Opinion nationale, et des séries de romans sur les Amérindiens. Il a pris place au Conseil municipal de Paris et a fini par un enterrement civil.
