TALES FROM MALISEET COUNTRY:
THE MALISEET TEXTS OF KARL V. TEETER
TRANSLATED AND EDITED BY PHILIP S. LeSOURD
During the summer of 1963, Harvard linguist Karl V. Teeter traveled along the Saint John River, the great thoroughfare of Native New Brunswick, Canada, with his principal Maliseet consultant, Peter Lewis Paul. Together they recorded a series of tales from Maliseet elders whom Paul regarded as among the best Maliseet storytellers born before 1900, including Charles Laporte, Matilda Sappier, Solomon Polchies, William Saulis, and Alexander Sacobie. Paul also contributed eleven narratives of his own. 200 Pgs Paperback
