Charles Ramus Forrest. «Le point de vue des environs de Québec pendant l'été, peut le disputer par sa rare beauté, sa variété, sa magnificence, sa sublimité, et l'harmonie naturelle de la réunion de tous ces faits saillants, aux points de vue les plus brillants qui aient encore été dessinés en Europe ou dans aucune autre partie du monde.» Joseph Bouchette, Description Topographique de la Province du Bas-Canada, Londres, 1815.
