Samuel Champlain 1608-35

Let’s wrap-up the fascinating life, times, deeds, and exploits of Samuel de Champlain (1567-1635), the Father of New France. In 1629 Champlain suffered the humiliation of having to surrender his almost starving garrison to an English fleet that appeared before Quebec. He was taken to England as a prisoner. Peace, however, had been declared between England and France before the surrender, and New France was accordingly restored to the French. Champlain returned from Europe to spend his few remaining years. He became governor of New France in 1633 and died in his beloved Quebec City 2 years later on Christmas Day, 1635. E291.
