""The Life and Traditions of the Red Man" is an extraordinary rendering of Eastern Algonquian history, story, and prophecy, self-published in the nineteenth century by a native writer from the northeast coast of the United States. As remarkable as the text was Joseph Nicolar himself, a brilliant and largely self-educated member of the Penobscot tribe who fervently wished to pass on what he could to the younger generations."--Patricia Clark Smith, coauthor of "On the Trail of Elder Brother: Glous'gap Stories of the Micmac Indians"
