Cet ouvrage est une étude approfondie de la politique coloniale menée par la France sous l'Ancien Régime, à travers l'analyse de documents d'archives. Louis Pauliat décrit les motivations et les stratégies des colons français, ainsi que les conséquences de leur présence sur les populations autochtones. Il montre également comment cette politique coloniale a influencé la culture et la société françaises de l'époque, et comment elle a préparé l'émergence de l'empire colonial français au XIXe siècle.
