When I chose to read my biography about Samuel de Champlain I was not too enthused. I didn’t have high expectations and thought it would be dull‚ but little did I know that I would thoroughly enjoy reading this book. I learned so much more about not only Champlain but also about the founding and history of New England and Canada that I had previously known. I am very satisfied with my choice of biography.
