    <![CDATA[Tracking Dr. Lonecloud: Showman to Legend Keeper, by Ruth Whitehead, Nova Scotia Museum ethnologist, is a new book that includes the memoir of Jerry Lonecloud, a Mikmaw hunter, healer, and showman. Co-published by Goose Lane Editions and the Nova Scotia Museum, the book offers to readers, for the first time, the earliest known Mikmaw memoir. Jerry Lonecloud was born Germain Laksi, on 4 July 1852 in Belfast, Maine, to Mikmaw parents from Nova Scotia. As a youth, he lived in Vermont. Orphaned at the age of fourteen, he set out on a two-year adventure to bring his two brothers and one sister back to Nova Scotia. Trained in the use of herbal medicine by his parents, Laski fell easily into the role of Doctor Lonecloud in the American medicine shows of the 1880s, including Healey and Bigelows Kickapoo Indian Medicine Company, Buffalo Bills Wild West Show, and his own company, the Kiowa Medicine Show, for which he made the medicines. During the rest of his remarkable life, he sold tonics in South America, prospected for gold, and guided sportsmen into the woods of Maritime Canada as they searched for moose and caribou. Hunter, healer, and showman, Lonecloud valued, studied, preserved, and passed on many of the traditional ways, stories, and natural medicines of his people. &quot;During Doctor Loneclouds travels, he gained a great amount of personal knowledge of different cultures, and in return he shared his vast knowledge of the Mikmaw people,&quot; notes Donald Julien, executive Director of the Confederacy of Mainland Mikmaq, in the books preface. A researcher himself, Julien has found Loneclouds name on hundreds of government documents in the provincial and national archives. &quot;The story of his many trips from childhood, to when he left this world to join our ancestors, is very intriguing,&quot; said Julien. After Lonecloud met Harry Piers, curator of the Provincial Museum of Nova Scotia, in 1910, the two developed a friendship that continued until Loneclouds death in 1930. Loneclouds great knowledge of natural and social history is reflected in the specimens and artifacts he brought to the museum, and in Pierss meticulous notes on the information Lonecloud provided about the items.  Near the end of his life, Lonecloud told journalist Clara Dennis his own story and a wealth of Mikmaw tales, oral histories, jokes and social customs, many previously undocumented. Unpublished until now, this treasure of information, recorded between 1923 and 1929, forms the basis of this book.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;<em>Twelve Thousand Years: American Indians in Maine</em> documents the generations of Native peoples who for twelve millennia have moved through and eventually settled along the rocky coast, rivers, lakes, valleys, and mountains of a region now known as Maine. Arriving first to this area were Paleo-Indian peoples, followed by maritime hunters, more immigrants, then a revival of maritime cultures. Beginning in the sixteenth century, Native peoples in northern New England became tangled in the far-reaching affairs of European explorers and colonists. <em>Twelve Thousand Years</em> reveals how Penobscots, Abenakis, Passamaquoddies, Maliseets, Micmacs, and other Native communities both strategically accommodated and overtly resisted European and American encroachments. Since that time, Native communities in Maine have endured, adapted when necessary, and experienced a political and cultural revitalization in recent decades.&lt;/div&gt;]]>
