''The Founder of New France: A Chronicle of Champlain'' is a historical biography written by Charles William Colby and published in 1915. The book tells the story of Samuel de Champlain, a French explorer and navigator who played a pivotal role in the founding of Quebec City and the establishment of French colonies in the New World. The narrative explores Champlain’s life and achievements, from his early travels in Europe to his expeditions in North America, where he forged alliances with Native American tribes and battled against English and Dutch traders for control of the lucrative fur trade. The book provides a detailed account of Champlain’s leadership, diplomacy, and military tactics, as well as his personal relationships and struggles. Through the lens of Champlain’s life and legacy, Colby offers a compelling portrait of the early days of French colonialism in North America and the complex interactions between Europeans and Indigenous peoples. Overall, ''The Founder of New France'' is a rich and informative historical work that sheds light on a pivotal figure in the history of Canada and the Americas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
