| Summary | "The Champlain Tercentenary: Final Report of the New York Lake Champlain Tercentenary Commission" is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume documents the commemorative events held in 1909 to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Samuel Champlain's discovery of Lake Champlain. The report details the celebrations, memorial constructions, and the exchanges between American and French dignitaries, emphasizing the enduring friendship between the two nations. The opening of the report sets the stage for what is to come, introducing the Lake Champlain Tercentenary Commission, which had been tasked with creating permanent memorials to Champlain in New York. The initial chapters outline the commission's activities, including the construction of the Champlain Memorial Lighthouse and the statue in Crown Point, as well as a monumental statue in Plattsburgh. Furthermore, it hints at the involvement of a distinguished French delegation that came to commemorate this milestone in history, bringing with them the allegorical bust "La France" crafted by Rodin, symbolizing the shared heritage and cooperation between France and the United States.
