New Familiar Abenakis and English Dialogues - Abenakis Chief Joseph Laurent - Bog

At a time when the Abenaki had little to no written documentation of their language, Joseph Laurent, Chief of the Abenaki reserve of Odanak, came forth to produce New Familiar Abenakis and English Dialogues. Intended to aid the younger generation in learning English, as well as preserve the culture and language of their people, the dictionary is an extraordinary achievement in linguistic and language education.
