Summary | "The Rise of Canada, From Barbarism to Wealth and Civilisation. Volume 1" by Charles Roger is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work delves into the exploration, colonization, and development of Canada, tracing its journey from a primitive state to a more organized and prosperous society. Roger aims to provide a comprehensive narrative that highlights significant events and figures in Canadian history, particularly during the period of French colonization and the initial encounters with Indigenous peoples. The opening of the book sets the stage for a detailed history of Canada, beginning with the exploration efforts aimed at discovering routes to Asia and outlining key figures like John Cabot and Jacques Cartier. Roger describes the challenges faced by these early explorers and their roles in establishing trade and settlements, particularly emphasizing Cartier's voyages and the founding of Quebec. This initial segment not only introduces the motivations behind European explorations but also hints at the complex interactions with Indigenous populations, the development of trade networks, and the subsequent impact of these events on the region's history.
