The Voyages of Samuel de Champlain Volume 2 is a historical book written by Samuel de Champlain. It is a compilation of Champlain's travel accounts and explorations in North America during the 17th century. The book provides a detailed description of the geography, flora, fauna, and indigenous people of the regions he visited, including the St. Lawrence River, Quebec, the Great Lakes, and the Atlantic coast. Champlain's accounts of his interactions with the Native American tribes and his efforts to establish French colonies in the New World offer a unique perspective on the early European exploration of North America. This book is an essential resource for historians, geographers, and anyone interested in the early history of North America.In the first place, there are at its entrance several islands distant ten or twelve leagues from the main land, which are in latitude 44 deg., and 18 deg. 40' of the deflection of the magnetic needle. The Isle des Monts Deserts forms one of the extremities of the mouth, on the east; the other is low land, called by the savages Bedabedec, [95] to the west of the former, the two being distant from each other nine or ten leagues. Almost midway between these, out in the ocean, there is another island very high and conspicuous, which on this account I have named Isle Haute. [96] All around there is a vast number of varying extent and breadth, but the largest is that of the Monts Deserts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
