David Vermette is a researcher and writer who studies the history and identity of the descendants of French North America. He has been an invited speaker at universities and historical and genealogical societies. Vermette is a third generation Franco-American from Massachusetts.
Readers interested in Canadian and American immigration history
will appreciate the depth of Vermette’s research and the
fascinating story he tells." —Publishers Weekly
"David Vermette’s A Distinct Alien Race is an important study that
goes well beyond just recounting an economic and social history of
New England and Quebec. Vermette, an excellent and engaging
writer/researcher, exposes an area of the past that has been
somewhat dismissed and even discounted by both American and
Quebec/Acadian historians who study the enormous French-speaking
Canadian emigration from Quebec and the Maritimes to the textile
industries of Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and New York
from the 1840s to the 1930s." —Sandra Stock, Quebec Heritage
News
"Meticulously researched and overflowing with facts, yet so well
written that it’s difficult to put down, the book tells a story few
Americans are aware of." —Emilie Noelle Provost, The Bean Magazine
