From there, he explored the surrounding territory, allied himself with the Hurons and the Algonquins, and took part in the first Mass on the island of Montreal. He also created the first accurate coastal map during his explorations, and founded various colonial settlements.The work describes all of the preceding French expeditions to the New World as well as his own, with a history of Canada from 1619 to 1632. It also 'gives us the first accurate accounts we have of the Indians of the interior of the present State of New York. The most remarkable event in Indian history was caused by Champlain's first visit to the shores of the lake bearing his name. In a conflict between the two named races of savages, he gave the victory to his friends the Abnaquis, by the use of his musket. The Iroquois never forgave the injury, and thousands of Frenchmen were slaughtered to avenge it' (Thomas W. Field, An Essay Towards an Indian Bibliography, 1991, no. 268).The present copy has a large hand-coloured map of Canada, drawn by Champlain in 1616 and printed by Pierre Duval in 1664, inserted in place of the 1632 map which is missing in most copies.
