I think this is the one you are talking about.


In this definitive scholarly biography, Francis Talbot, S.J., a recognized authority on the North American Jesuit martyrs, presents the life and ministry of St. Issac Jogues, the seventeenth-century French Jesuit missionary who preached the Gospel to native American Indians and suffered martyrdom among the Iroquois in 1646. Talbot’s vivid prose reads swiftly and includes extensive quotations from Jogues’s correspondence and personal writings.
