The dream of Samuel de Champlain refers to his efforts to organize permanent self-sufficient colonies in North America to live in peace and harmony with the native inhabitants. In a world filled with inhumanity and war Champlain's plans for New France were refreshing with his treatment of respect for all humanity Native Americans included. This contrasted sharply with the English Puritans in New England, the Dutch in New Netherland, and the Spanish in New Spain. Settlers from these countries didn't tolerate beliefs that differed from their own, and instituted torture tactics upon those that didn't comply. The Iroquois were one group that Champlain didn't get along with from his initial fight with them at the newly named Lake Champlain in the area where the lake connects with Lake George.Champlain had to be a hearty individual having crossed the Atlantic Ocean close to thirty times between Canada and France. This in addition to traveling the area of Georgian Bay around Lake Huron. This man was a true leader treating others with the respect he commanded for himself. He had one man executed for plotting to have him killed, but pardoned other accomplices by having them returned to France.His marriage to the then twelve-year old Helene Boulle was a mixed bag having apparently been arranged by the girl's parents. She was initially unhappy, but did come to New France in 1620, and spent some time admired by the natives. She later separated from Champlain and joined a convent in France.Champlain is remembered as an explorer and a founder of colonies in Canada, but his greatest contribution is the legacy he left in his respectful treatment of those whose lives he touched while French explorer Jacques Cartier, the English in New England, the Dutch in New Netherland, and the Spanish in New Spain ill-treated the Native Americans they encountered.The book is 834 pages long, but the text itself is 531 pages. The rest is notes, a bibliography, and an index.
This is one of the most revelatory biographies and histories I ever have read. This book is packed with erudite scholarship as related by an author in command of the art of storytelling. It's a huge book, which will surprise you because - your know - who's Champlain? Did he merit any more than a paragraph or two in any (U.S.) school book you read? That's probably because we descend from an English tradition. We see our history through an English lens, at least until we throw off the yoke of King George and the lobsterbacks and Hessians he used to quash our freedoms and inalienable rights (yeah, yeah). The fact so few of us know this story is reason enough for the Quebecois to desire independence. If this alone doesn't make you want to visit Montreal and Quebec, then tack the first six of Louise Penny's mystery novels onto it and you'll hardly be able to stay away.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, particularly as the importance of what Samuel Champlain accomplished became increasingly clear as the book neared its end. Champlain was a remarkable man, although the popular knowledge of him probably extends not much beyond giving his name to a large lake in a remote part of upstate New York state. Champlain, however, excelled at many things and was deficient in very few. His skill resulted in the settling of French colonies throughout the southern rim of Canada. Champlain embodied the talent of a diplomat in dealing with many fractious Indian tribes, smoothly gaining their trust and their respect. He handled innumerable difficult situations in his native France, through two regents and one extraordinarily critical minister, Cardinal Richelieu. He held his tiny colonies together through tough winters, desertion, and battles with the native Indians. Eventually, at the end of his life, in 1635, he lived to see the population of southern Canada explode and the French culture take firm root in the North American continent.This is a wonderful story, told by in my opinion a great historian. David Fischer's Washington's Crossing was perhaps a more focused book, telling a story of enormous significance to American history. However, Professor Fischer's skill at weaving a strong impression of a great multi-faceted man is demonstrated here, in his portrait of Champlain, just as vividly as it was with Washington.I would say, in fairness to the reader of this complex but stirring book, that it would be advisable to read the book with a highly detailed Atlas of Canada firmly in hand. I thought I knew something of Canadian geography but this is a graduate seminar in rivers and peninsulas and islands. It can be a bit confusing at times without a strong sense of Canadian geography. Also, be prepared for a crash course in Indian tribal history. Much of this is difficult, since it is so new to me. But it is an important part of what Champlain faced. He was forced to deal with a strange unknown land, populated with unknown people speaking languages that were totally unknown to any European, and had to sell his vision of the importance of this new land to a skeptical and largely ignorant France. He did this with incredible skill.
