Joutel's Journal of La Salle's Last Voyage, 1684-1687 (1906) is a historical book written by Henry Reed Stiles. The book is a translation of the journal of Henri Joutel, a French explorer who accompanied Ren�����-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, on his final expedition to establish a colony in Louisiana. The journal covers the period from 1684 to 1687, documenting the journey from France to the Gulf of Mexico, the establishment of Fort St. Louis, and the ill-fated attempt to find the mouth of the Mississippi River.
