Summary "The Abenaki Indians" by Frederic Kidder is a historical account published in the mid-19th century, specifically in 1859. This book delves into the history, culture, and treaties of the Abenaki tribes, primarily those inhabiting parts of what are now Maine and New Hampshire. Kidder aims to share insights regarding these indigenous people, their interactions with European settlers, and the complexities surrounding various historical events and treaties. In this work, Frederic Kidder meticulously traces the lineage and historical significance of the Abenaki tribes, detailing key aspects of their culture, language, and the impact of colonial expansion on their way of life. The text provides an overview of several tribes under the Abenaki umbrella, such as the Penobscots and Passamaquodies, while charting their emigration trends and their relationships with both Native and European powers throughout the centuries. The book also presents significant treaties from 1713 and 1717, which encapsulate the efforts made by the Abenakis to maintain their territory in the face of European encroachment. Additionally, a vocabulary section preserves elements of the Abenaki language, adding valuable context to their cultural heritage. Overall, Kidder's work serves as an essential resource for understanding the historical narrative of the Abenaki Indians and their enduring legacy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
