520 |a"When Europeans first began to settle in North America the Micmacs probably numbered between three and six thousand, and they lived in what is now Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. They were hunters and fishers who seasonally alternated between the interior where they hunted in winter, and the coasts and inshore waters from which they obtained most of their food. As far as is known, they were not in the habit of visiting Newfoundland prior to their first contact with white men, yet by the eighteenth century the Micmacs were well established on the island where five hundred of their descendants now live. The story of their colonization of Newfoundland is an interesting, and perhaps instructive, chapter in the history of Indian-white relations"--p. [1]
