"Old Quebec, the city of Champlain" by Emily P. Weaver Samuel do Champlain was born in 1570, or possibly a year or two earlier, at Brouag'e, then a busy little seaport on the Bav of Biscay - now a mouldering hamlet. This book examines this transformation and takes readers on a journey of the past and present of Old Quebec during Weaver's time near the turn of the century.
