An essay about the Wabanaki, the indigenous peoples of Maine. Details the initial contact of Englishman Christopher Levett with a tribe on the Presumpscot river in 1624, and discusses what the life of the Wabanaki was like before Europeans arrived. Mentions current legislation aimed at restoring some tribal sovereignty to Maine's remaining indigenous populations.
