Volume I: The First Voyage (1603)
In 1603, Champlain set sail on his maiden voyage to North America, driven by a thirst for exploration and the desire to establish a permanent French presence in the New World. His journey led him to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where he encountered the native Mi'kmaq people and explored the coastline, meticulously mapping the shores and documenting the region's abundant natural resources.
Volume II: The Second Voyage (1604-1607)
Building on the success of his first voyage, Champlain embarked on a second expedition in 1604 with the mission to establish a permanent French settlement in North America. He ascended the St. Lawrence River, exploring the interior of the continent and establishing the first permanent European settlement north of Mexico, Port Royal, on the Bay of Fundy. This pivotal moment marked the foundation of New France, a French colony that would become a major player in the history of North America.
Volume III: The Third Voyage (1608-1609) and Beyond
Champlain's third voyage, spanning from 1608 to 1609, was marked by both exploration and conflict. He ventured deep into the interior, establishing the settlement of Quebec City, which would serve as the capital of New France and a major hub of trade and commerce. However, his encounters with the Iroquois Confederacy, a powerful Native American alliance, led to a series of conflicts that would shape the future of French-Native American relations in North America.
