This book traces the footprints of the Lenape-Delaware Indians across the continent and centers on a culture which occupied a four state region of the Northeast. The initial written documentation describing their way of life was supplied by eleven seventeenth century observers from four nationalities. In the next century, religious missionaries recorded their changing society as it faced the tide of immigration flooding into their homelands. Without their written information, this book could never have been completed.

The landscape of Odiorne Point has seen centuries of change from the courageous footsteps of the first settlers at "Pennaway" to the firing of guns at Fort Dearborn. Behind the breathtaking beauty of the area lie secrets of natural and cultural history hidden deep in the sands of time. Available for the first time in book form, Footprints in Time is based on a walking tour popular at Odiorne Point State Park since 1988. Whether you are relaxing at home or rambling along the Park's winding trails, this oceanside walking guide will lead you through the fascinating stories of the "Birthplace of New Hampshire."

Every child feels different in some way, but Thuy feels "double different." She is Vietnamese American and she has two moms. Thuy walks home one winter afternoon, angry and lonely after a bully's taunts. Then a bird catches her attention and sets Thuy on an imaginary exploration. What if she could fly away like a bird? What if she could sprint like a deer, or roar like a bear? Mimicking the footprints of each creature in the snow, she makes her way home to the arms of her moms. Together, the three of them imagine beautiful and powerful creatures who always have courage - just like Thuy.

"The following information provides a brief overview of the characteristics of Footprints in Time Study children. While the full value of a longitudinal survey, such as Footprints in Time, is only realised in later waves of the study, the Wave 1 data does provide a snapshot of a wide range of information about Indigenous children and their families. The information below provides a sample of the data including: family structure and housing, household finances, cultural identity, health and development, activities, parenting, stressful life events, environmental factors. The findings reported here are based on Wave 1 interviews conducted with the primary carer of the Study child, known as Parent 1 (P1). P1 is identified at the start of the interview as the adult family member who spends the most time with the Study child. In most instances (96 per cent) this was a parent, usually the mother (93 per cent). In 50 instances (3 per cent) the primary carer was a grandparent and in 39 cases (2 per cent) fathers identified themselves as the main carer of the child. The following information uses ?parent? to refer to the primary carer of the child (P1), unless otherwise specified. Analyses exclude data with missing values."--Highlights from Wave 1, FaHCSIA web site.
