The second chapter covers the Abnakis' interactions with the French, who were the first Europeans to arrive in the region. The third chapter focuses on the Abnakis' role in the French and Indian War, which was fought between the French and the British in North America in the mid-18th century. The fourth chapter covers the Abnakis' involvement in the American Revolution, during which they sided with the British. The fifth chapter discusses the decline of the Abnakis' population in the 19th century, due to disease, war, and forced relocation. The final chapter provides some concluding remarks on the Abnakis' history and their legacy in the region.Overall, The Abnakis and Their History: Or Historical Notices on the Aborigines of Acadia (1866) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Abnakis and the Native American tribes of North America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
