DOWNLOAD EBOOKSamuel de Champlain — explorer, cartographer, administrator and diplomat to the Native American peoples he encountered — made twelve voyages to North America between 1603 and 1633. He authored four accounts of his explorations and observations, each published in his own day and lavishly illustrated with maps and engravings. Champlain’s Works became increasingly popular after his death and ultimately shaped the founding narratives of the colonization of northeastern North America and the creation of New France. In this volume, Gayle K. Brunelle offers a thorough and balanced examination of Champlain’s life and career, and invites students to consider how, through his explorations, his writings, and his remarkable maps, Champlain shaped our understanding of early North American history. Document headnotes, maps and illustrations, a chronology of events, questions to consider, a selected bibliography, and an index are provided to enrich student understanding.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCalled the "Father of New France," Samuel de Champlain was a French navigator and explorer who founded New France and Quebec City in the early 1600s. Celebrated in Canadian history, Champlain made the first accurate map of the country's Eastern coast. Champlain began exploring North America in 1603. From 1604 to 1607, he participated in the first permanent European settlement north of Florida, Port Royal, Acadia. In 1608, he established the French settlement known today as Quebec City. Champlain went on to be the first European to explore and describe the Great Lakes and published books about his experiences with various Native American tribes. Today, many monuments, streets and natural landmarks bear his name.
