	American Journeys Background on Radisson's Account of His Third Journey, 1658-1660
		Iroquois attacks on tribes allied with the French disrupted the fur trade during the 1650s, and western Indian nations had been unable to trade their furs to the French for several seasons.
		This is the journey Radisson describes here -- known as his third voyage, the two Iroquois expeditions being the first two -- but other documents suggest he did not participate in the expedition at all as Radisson appears to have been in Quebec in 1655.
		Unnoticed until the end of the nineteenth century when records of the voyage surfaced at the British Museum, Radisson’s journals were first published in 1885 for the Prince Society in Boston by Gideon D. Scull.
