Acadia National Park Ethnographic Overview and Assessment Volume 1 and Volume 2 This two-volume historical-ethnographic overview of Acadia National Park spans almost 500 years and covers a wide coastal stretch between Penobscot and Gouldsboro Bays – and sometimes much beyond. Such breadth of coverage is necessary in order to take in the park’s center piece on Mount Desert Island, plus Isle au Haut and Schoodic Peninsula, along with various land holding arrangements (including easements) on numerous offshore sea-islands in this area.1 The study explores the shifting but ongoing relationship between this habitat and Wabanaki peoples – a group of northeastern Algonquianspeaking ethnic groups or tribal nations today distinguished as the Abenaki, Maliseet, Mi'kmaq, Passamaquoddy and Penobscot.

Southwest Harbor high school did not publish The Pemetic in 1925. Page seven of the 1926 yearbook provides this explanation: "Last year, owing to the small class of Seniors, no book was attempted, for, of course, anything of this kind causes much extra work. We do, however, urge every class that is to follow us to put forth every effort in order that they may do their part for Southwest Harbor high school."
