Author Douglas Rooks will read passages about Gov. Ed Muskie’s dramatic and surprising decision concerning Albert Beliveau’s attempt in 1956 to become the first Franco-American chief justice, and its aftermath 14 years later.
This restoration of the life of one of Maine’s most prominent 20th century Franco-Americans includes themes of enduring and contemporary interest, including discrimination against the state’s largest ethnic and religious demographic, immigration restrictions, World War I and the pandemic of 1918.
