Peter Paquette

I have an AB in history from Dartmouth and an MBA from Tuck. In the 1990s, I read my first history about the Franco-Americans in New England. Around 2020, I started to research this subject more extensively and found the fascinating, complicated, and evolving story of the French in North America. This will be the second course which explores some aspect of this story; in this case, the migration from francophone Canada to anglophone New England from the 1840s to the 1930s.
