Primary sources On this page are primary sources on voyages of discovery that can be found on the web. Primary sources are the texts the travellers themselves wrote on their voyages. Of course these sources are of utmost importance when studying the history of exploration. There is also a part on secondary sources , that is, sources that were written by others than the voyagers themselves, either based on information directly from the voyagers themselves, or on primary sources, which in some cases might be lost afterwards.

Editor's note: For additional "explorer" resources, be sure to check out this week's CURRICULUM story, Across the Sea: Europeans Explore the New World Students, perhaps distracted by the October 12 school holiday, often forget that Christopher Columbus wasn't the only explorer who sailed into uncharted seas to find an unknown land. They may not even realize that he wasn't even the first of those adventurers to set foot in the New World. Historians believe Leif Erikson, an Icelander, was the first European to arrive in North America, landing in what is now Canada in 1001. Then why is Columbus so widely-known and celebrated and Erikson so often ignored or forgotten? Pose the question before you begin exploring "Explorer" Web sites. Students should be able to answer that question and many more at the end of their online voyages.

The cartographer prepared relief maps. Certain areas were deemed "unpleasant" lands because nothing, it seemed, would ever grow, besides rocks and fir trees. In addition "these were veritable deserts uninhabitable by animals and birds." Henry Ford said, "history is more or less bunk." Others consider it dull. In the hands of Francine Legaré, the history of Samuel de Champlain is neither. It is fun. Establishing a colony in New France, while incredibly difficult, was exciting. A sense of excitement and adventure fills the pages of Legaré's well-researched and thorough account of Canada's founder.

Help Important Notices Ref. No.: NMC-051970 Detailed Description New France 1632, by Samuel de Champlain Champlain first incorporated the Ocean Glacial into his map of New France in 1616, and later again in this 1632 map. So strong was the French conviction in the passage that it remained a part of their North American cartographic tradition for the next 150 years. [more] Some modern historians wonder whether the explorers of the New World really believed an all-water route to Asia was possible. One thing is certain, however, the spices and silks of the Orient guaranteed more lucrative returns than anything the New World could provide, including its fledgling fur trade. If the explorers did not use the Northwest Passage and its lure of profits as an incentive for exploring the North American interior, then financial backing for expeditions into Canada's terra incognita would have been almost impossible to obtain. By incorporating the inland waters of the Northwest Passage onto their maps, the French were also hedging their bets. If an Ocean Glacial should be discovered at some future date by another European nation, France could still make some claim to the passage by virtue of the fact that French cartographers had already mapped the feature.

June, 2004 Ste-Croix celebrations A few days later they chose an island in the St. Croix river, which today forms the Canada-U.S. border between New Brunswick and Maine. Here they built their settlement, and returned the following year to the Annapolis Basin. By the early 1600s, a busy fur trade was flourishing in the St. Lawrence which, together with the fishery, brought fleets of ships from the European sea ports each season. But French monarchs had been preoccupied with wars against Spain, and with the Wars of Religion, and paid little attention to establishing a permanent settlement in New France. But in 1598 the Treaty of Vervins brought peace, and France saw the dawn of a new era of colonization. In 1603, Pierre du Gua de Monts, a Protestant merchant and favourite of the King, proposed a colony to the south of the St. Lawrence, where it was hoped the climate would be more favourable.

68. Explorers And Settlers Of North America champlain returned to the new world where he would spend the rest of his life.samuel de champlain died on Christmas Day 1635. All were saddened http://oz.plymouth.edu/~lts/wilderness/explorers.html

Explorers and Settlers of North America Amerigo Vespucci: 1454-1512 Amerigo Vespucci lived from 1454 to 1512. He was a merchant and an explorer of Spanish descent. Vespucci took part in many early voyages to the New World for the Spanish. He was chief navigator for the Spanish and this included preparing maps and routes to the New World. Of his two or three voyages, one was the discovery of parts of South America, specifically Argentina and Pategonia areas. In 1502, his voyages were highly important because they confirmed doubts of the New World being a separate land from Asia. In 1504 or 1505 accounts of his voyages came out on "A Chronicle of Navigation, Mundus Novus". The New world was named after him in 1507 by Martin Waldseemuller who also wrote travel accounts of Vespucci. Although this name was derived primarily for South America, the name stuck for North America as well. Submitted by Dennis Wilkens Sir Walter Raleigh Although greatly disappointed by the return of the first group of colonists, Raleigh dispatched John White and another company of 121 people, with orders to move the Roanoke settlement north to Virginia, onto the shores of Chesapeake Bay. The sailors refused to sail beyond Roanoke however, and the colonists were forced to remain there. When they landed on Roanoke Island in July of 1587, not one of the colonists left behind by Grenville the year before, was still alive. White sailed to England for supplies and when he finally returned to Roanoke in 1590, no trace of the colony remained. The fate of the Lost Colony is still a mystery, even to the present day.

Champlain Samuel de Champlain discovered and rediscovered many locations in the New World. He was trained in seamanship, navigation and map making. Champlain wrote a book on how the Indians lived. The book had the best information about the Indians at that time. He made many voyages to the New World. Champlain was born in Brouage, France in 1567. Samuel went to war in Brittany when he was a young man. After the war he received a reward of money. He was given command of a small ship going to the West Indies. This voyage was the beginning of his adventures to the New World. After a long time of exploring he was nicknamed the "Father of New France". Champlain was helped by his uncle, a general of a fleet of the King of Spain, to get the command of the ship going to the West Indies. He first saw the New World under the Spanish flag. Champlain cruised the West Indies and along the coast of the main land from Panama to Mexico. He saw the ancient ruins of Mexico City. Champlain was the first to suggest digging a canal to connect the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. He was asked by Aymar de Clermont, Governor of Dieppe to explore the St. Lawrence. The leader of the expedition was a merchant named Pontgrave. Aymar de Clermont equipped two ships that were slightly larger then a fishing boat. The ships entered the Strait of Belle Isle. As they traveled Champlain saw the ruins of Cartier's old fort at Tadoussac. He also saw Mt. Royal which Cartier named sixty years before. The Indian village of Hochelaga had disappeared, and there were only a few Algonquin Indians.

Samuel de Champlain page 2 Mathieu-Loranger, Francine. Morison, Samuel Eliot. Samuel de Champlain, Father of New France . Toronto and Boston: Little, Brown and Co., 1972. Morison explains how Champlain was also an artist and illustrator, a military engineer and designer, a mapmaker and cartographer, and a skilful writer whose Voyages are a rich source of Canadian history. His Treatise on Seamanship, printed in this book, is a practical handbook of navigation for that time. This book prints many of his illustrations. Exploration and colonizing activity required courage, leadership and dedication. Morison depicts Champlain as one of the most remarkable explorers of world history, arguably the most important in Canada's early and subsequent history. This book is based on an excellent knowledge of the literature of exploration, of early Canadian history, and of the waters and rivers of North America as appreciated by a sailor-historian.

Beginnings of Colonization of the Saint-Croix Island Sainte Croix Island Habitation by Samuel de Champlain Map of Sainte Croix Island by Samuel de Champlain 11 000 years ago, many Native communities lived in the region where Sainte Croix Island is located. Amerindians were the first ones to inhabit the region and they probably visited few times the island where they might have stored food. European fishermen also visited the region known for its water abundant in fish while fur traders inspected the territories, searching for game animals and fur. When fur trade seemed to be a very lucrative business to great powers such as England and France, many expeditions left European seaports to explore the New World. Among those ships was the , Pierre Dugua de Mons' ship. Dugua was leading an expedition of 60 men to the Passamaquoddy region. Today, this region is known as the Annapolis Valley and is located between New Brunswick and the United States. Pierre Dugua de Mons The French arrived in Acadia Settlement The French didn't wait a long time before starting to develop the settlement on the Sainte Croix Island. All the settlers contributed to the construction of fortified city. In order to help him to establish the French settlement, Dugua had hired many tradesmen: carpenters, blacksmiths, joiners, stonemason, locksmiths, and top men. Some dwellings were joined together by palisades to protect them against wildlife or enemies. Two streets crossed the public square and gave access to other buildings: storehouse, Dugua's residence, carpenters and Swiss dwellings, blacksmith shop, well, public building, bake house, cook house (overhanging the cliff), chapel (located outside the palisades). The settlement included 20 buildings made of wood and with foundation of stone and clay. A few gardens were planted in order to make the colony self-sufficient. At the beginning of fall 1604, 79 settlers stayed at the Sainte Croix Island colony; the others returned to France.

var TlxPgNm='id122'; BACK EXPLORING NORTH AMERICA After Columbus and Vespucci discovered the new continent, many explorers decided to continue. Some of them were just adventurers looking for glory and fun. Some dreamed of rich, golden cities. Slowly they found the mountains, lakes and trails and made it possible to bring people to settle America. Click on the explorer to learn more: John Cabot Giovanni da Veranzano Jacques Cartier Henry Hudson ... Lewis and Clark John Cabot John Cabot's real name was Giovanni Caboto and he was from Italy. He was adventurer and wanted to sail West. In 1494 he moved to England. That's where his name became John Cabot. He wanted to reach Asia by sailing west across the north Atlantic. He thought this would be shorter and quicker way than the way Columbus went. Cabot first tried his idea in 1496 and failed. Crew was unhappy with conditions on the ship, and they turned back before reaching the land. He tried again next year and reached Labrador and Newfoundland. He explored under the British flag and claimed the new land for England. Giovanni da Verrazzano He was born in Italy and was very educated, especially in math. He did his exploration for France. At the time he started exploring, people already heard about the new land across the ocean. Verrazzano wanted to explore the coast of the new land.

78. Samuel & Helene De Champlain: A 400-year Old Canadian Couple Before samuel Helene de champlain came on the scene, the very word was littlevision in France for the priority of sending people to the new world. http://www3.telus.net/st_simons/cr0312.html

-an article for the December 2003 Deep Cove Crier To most French citizens, Canada seemed distant and unimportant. Even well-educated Parisians denied the value of Canada, sometimes dismissing it as another Siberia. In the 16 th But in contrast to England, there was little vision in France for the priority of sending people to the New World. To immigrate to Canada, there was even a financial disincentive of 36 livres charged to anyone leaving France. As a result, Champlain and his Quebec people felt disregarded, deserted and discarded. Champlain was born in 1567 in the town of Brouage, then a bustling seaport on the southwestern coast of France, some 70 miles (112 km) north of Bordeaux. His father was a sea captain and as a boy he became skilled at seamanship and navigation. Ironically Champlain never learned to swim, even after crossing the rugged Atlantic Ocean twenty-nine times, as he thought swimming was too risky. For a while Champlain served in the army of King Henry IV, fighting alongside Martin Frobisher in a joint undertaking by the British and French against the Spanish. http://www3.telus.net/st_simons/cr9811.htm
