This Chebacco Chats episode will explore two key turning points in the late 1700s and early 1800s where the fate of the region could have easily resulted in it becoming a province of British North America.

Chebacco Chats, our weekly web series, features authors, historians, and others who study and celebrate history, the great place that is Mount Desert Island, and the way the island impacts the wider world.

Chebacco Chats are live on Zoom, and recordings are made available the week after they air.
