Inhalt:

Champlain: The Birth of French America is the definitive reference on Champlain and the birth of French America. The book discusses not only the beginnings of L'Acadie, its development, and the difficulties of colonization but also look at France during Champlain's time and analyse how he has been remembered. Lavishly illustrated, Champlain brings together the thirty-two maps attributed to him, reproduced for the first time in colour, as well as illustrations of numerous rare artifacts, documents, and a selection of drawings by Champlain. A tenacious, multitalented individual, Samuel de Champlain was a cartographer, an explorer, and, ultimately, governor of the French colonies in the new world. His extensive writings, largely relating to his voyages, include the only known accounts of the Laurentian colony during the first quarter of the seventeenth century.
