Henry Kelsey saw the Battle of Hudson Bay first-hand and surrendered to D’Iberville

Read the journal notes of Henry Kelsey from 1697 when he watched for 2 weeks as the French-Canadian Pierre Le Moyne D’Iberville attacked and captured York Fort. If you haven’t heard of Henry Kelsey he is also a great explorer. He is the first known European to see bison and the prairies of central North America when he walked from York Fort to Saskatchewan.
