This book contains the translation of The Gospel of Mark by Pial Pol Wzokhilian into the Abenaki language presented here lightly edited, reformatted and for the first time with the inclusion of line-by-line translations in both English and French. Also included is a brief biography of this extremely influential minister, schoolmaster and interpreter of the Saint Francis Abenaki tribe. The Abenaki translation contained within is one of the richest resources and earliest recordings of the Eastern-Algonquin languages and should be of great value to students of the language, linguistics, anthropology and early New England history.
