Pierre-Esprit Radisson (1636–1710) was a French fur trader and explorer. He is often linked to his brother-in-law Médard des Groseilliers. The decision of Radisson and Groseilliers to enter the English service led to the formation of the Hudson's Bay Company. ==Early life==
Born near Avignon in 1636〔 or 1640,〔 he came to New France at an early age on 24 May 1651.〔 While out duck hunting (probably in 1651) he was captured by the Mohawks but was adopted by his captors. He learned their language and way of life and joined them in their wars. While out hunting with an Algonquin and three Mohawks, the captives killed their captors and escaped, but were quickly hunted down. The Algonquin was killed and Radisson was tortured until he was rescued by his native family. He later escaped to Fort Orange (present day Albany, New York) where he served as an interpreter. For some reason he was sent to Europe along with a Jesuit priest. He returned to Trois-Rivières in 1657 or 1654〔 where he found his half-sister married to Groseilliers. In 1657 he was at the Jesuit Iroquois mission near what is now Syracuse, New York, and returned to Quebec when this failed. He was now about 21 years of age.
