Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Guilford and Sangerville Town Register: 1904
The story of the Indians in the state of Maine is ever interesting. Especially is that of the region of the Penobscot Valley. This race of men is the subject of pity as well as of hatred, hated for their cruelty, and pitied for their misfortune at the hands of their more civilized fellows, the Anglo Saxons. We of a later day can look upon this race in a spirit of greater fairness than could our ancestors whose View of the redman was obscured by his late acts of rapine and plunder. As we read history let us remember that they were struggling to retain their own domain, to defend their Fatherland against the acts of the aggressive pale face whose deeds of power we delight to honor.
