Excerpt from A History of Lake Champlain: The Record of Three Centuries; 1609 1909 In offering this History of Lake Champlain to the public the writer does not claim that every detail of important events has been recorded or that every incident worthy of remembrance has been included. Such treatment would require longer time and greater space than are available for the production of this book. An attempt has been made to describe briefly and accurately the principal features of the story of this lake and valley as written during the past three centuries by the three nations of France, Great Britain, and the United States of America. Grateful acknowledgments are due Frank L. Greene, Hon. Horace W. Bailey, Hon. Carroll S. Page, Hon. John B. Riley, Hon. Charles Deal, Miss Edith Clarke, Capt. E. B. Rockwell, D. A. Loomis, officials of the navy department, and many others for valuable aid rendered in a variety of ways.
