At 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 16, author Jody Bachelder will read from her book “Samoset and the Wawenock of Pemaquid, Maine” (2022; Down East Books), and answer audience questions. Bachelder grew up on the Pemaquid peninsula, Samoset and the Wawenock lived, and like many people of European descent, she knew little about the Indigenous people who called the area home for thousands of years. Bachelder worked for many years in the libraries of the Hall-Dale school system, and in 2013 was named Walter J. Taranko Maine School Librarian of the Year.
