« Jusqu'à ces dernières années, l'oeuvre de Louis Hébert était peu connue. Nos grands historiens n'eurent guère le loisir de l'étudier ; les quelques notes éparses çà et là dans leurs écrits étaient loin de faire ressortir la grandeur de la tâche accomplie par cet intrépide pionnier de la civilisation. Il nous semblait pourtant que le geste héroïque de Louis Hébert aurait dû, depuis longtemps, attirer l'attention de nos écrivains. L'histoire de ce colon entreprenant et celle de sa famille, de 1604 à 1632, n'est-elle pas intimement liée à celle de notre patrie ? Oui ! certes. Il est impossible de raconter les origines de la Nouvelle-France, sans s'arrêter longuement sur les travaux de Louis Hébert et des siens. »
