Editorial Reviews
The Voice of The Dawn Book Frederick Wiseman
Review
"Wiseman's synthesis of widely accepted archaeology with an innovative
interpretive scheme centered on the Wabanaki is welcome and
convincing."--Choice
"Readers looking for extensive and subtle discussions of prehistoric
artifacts in the region will find this to be a useful addition to their
libraries. Wiseman's use of some oral histories, native philosophy,
personal reflection, and quotations for native scholars and tribal
historians is refreshing and long overdue." --Vermont History
"Wiseman's book offers the reader a well-told story of natural and human
history but it is his discussion of the connection of all this history
to commonplace aspects of modern life that is particularly compelling.
Wiseman confronts the reader with the connections among history, land,
and the people.
Reclaiming The Ancestors (Fred Wiseman's New Book)
Product Description
Reclaiming the Ancestors sets the record straight about the
early history of the Wabanaki - the Abenaki, Penobscot, Passamaquoddy,
Malecite, and Mi'kmaq. Wiseman proposes a sovereigntist approach to
understanding the current archaeological understanding of Abenaki
prehistory. He begins with an overview of the conflicting views of First
Nations and archaeologists regarding Indigenous history and how he developed
his research design model. Over the next 10 chapters the book explores and
discusses the periods of Wabanaki prehistory. The final chapter takes the
history to the beginning of the early contact period. The author makes he
point that documentation of Wabanaki territory is of vital importance in
today's political climate of Vermont. The Wabanaki face major obstacles as
politicians utilize archaeological evidence against the Wabanaki's push for
self-governance and recognition. The book contains limited black and white
photographs of artifacts because the author made a conscious choice to
respect items that were from grave sites. A fascinating history that dispels
many previously-held academic viewpoints of the Wabanaki First Nations.
Malian's Song (The Family Heritage Series)
By Marge Bruchac
Product Description
In the words of a young Abenaki girl, Malian's Song tells
the true story of the deliberate English attack by British Major Robert
Rogers on the St. Francis Abenaki community near Montreal in 1759. Jeanne
Brink, a descendant of Malian living in Vermont, told the little-known
Abenaki version of the brutal attack--which stands in direct contrast to
Rogers' surviving journal records--to the Vermont Folklife Center. The only
picture book to present this key piece of North American history from the
Native American perspective, Malian's Song underscores the Abenaki people's
strength and fortitude in the face of unspeakable loss.
