""Glimpses of the Monastery V3"" is a historical book written by C. Darveau in 1875. The book provides a brief sketch of the history of the Ursulines of Quebec from 1739 to 1839.

The book covers their arrival in Canada, their establishment of a monastery, and their work in education and healthcare. It also discusses their interactions with the indigenous peoples of the region and the challenges they faced in their mission.
