Malian's song

by Marge Bruchac ; illustrated by William Maughan
Book - 2005

In the words of a young Abenaki girl, Malian's Song tells the true story of the deliberate English attack by British Major Robert Rogers on the St. Francis Abenaki community near Montreal in 1759. Jeanne Brink, a descendant of Malian living in Vermont, told the little-known Abenaki version of the brutal attack<U+2014>which stands in direct contrast to Rogers' surviving journal records<U+2014>to the Vermont Folklife Center. The only picture book to present this key piece of North American history from the Native American perspective, Malian's Song underscores the Abenaki people's strength and fortitude in the face of unspeakable loss.
