  The History of Madawaska : Based on the Historical Research of Patrick Therriault and the Manuscript Notes of Prudent L. Mercure (Histoire du Madawaska d'apreès les recherches historiques de Patrick Theriault et les notes manuscrites de Prudent L. Mercure)

  Translation of 1920 history text on Madawaska, Maine, and its neighboring towns. Republished through the efforts of the Madawaska Historical Society. From the preface: "We believe that Father Thomas Albert's book, 'L'Histoire du Madawaska,' is far more than a history book. It is indeed a piece of history itself. Its pages contain the spirit and pride that are the seeds of Madawaskan heritage, which, for two hundred years, have been nurtured by an undying Acadian tradition still highly visible in the St. John Valley today." From the translated text: "It is but a first sketch, the first stuttering effort in our language at least, to relate the history of our historic Valley."
