Opis

The young people of today
are not aware of conditions of their grandparents' time. An effort is made on
these pages to record the past in such a manner as to make this generation
understand and appreciate the evolution experienced by our parish.-from the Preface
Histoire et Geographie des Avoyelles en Louisiane, a French
text, accurately and interestingly details the history of this central
Louisiana parish. In carefully researching this work, the author personally
toured the region and interviewed its residents. As a result, she has produced
a necessary asset to the exploration of the rich history of Louisiana and the
South.
In this book, the French language links the reader to the past, to a time
when the French flag flew over the area and the language was thus used more
frequently in the state.
