Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few of our state's 64 parishes have first-rate published histories available about them. How marvelous that Pelican should have seen fit to republish this superlative book!--Shreveport forum news From the banks of the Mississippi River to the edge of Bayou Barataria to the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana�s Jefferson Parish encompasses a diverse and historic region. This comprehensive, illustrated volume reconstructs the natural and human history of the parish, tracing its evolution from the earliest times of prehistory to the modern era. Betsy Swanson spotlights the area�s early Indian life and archaeological sites and historic landmarks, extinct and extant, and the roles they played in the progress of the region. Colorful historical figures who appear in these pages include the pirate Jean Lafitte, revolutionary Nicolas Chauvin de la Freni�re, and the reclusive philanthropist John McDonogh. Historic Jefferson Parish also features a treasure trove of early sketches, rare maps, and vintage photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A trivia-packed, free-wheeling, humorous look at street names." -Angus Lind, FOX 8 News, New Orleans Inspired by John Chase's Frenchmen, Desire, Good Children, this funny and informative book narrates the history of Jefferson Parish through its street names. The guide explains the significance of each appellation, along with the reasons why real estate developers chose them. Seventeen chapters divide the information into different categories. "Honoring the Warriors" pays homage to our heroes with Veterans Memorial Boulevard and Admiral Craik Drive, while "�Parlez-vous Italiano, Se�orita?" ponders the meaning behind Segnette Boulevard and Chi Chi Lane. "Go, Saints!" describes the presence of the Catholic culture in the region, including such streets as St. Elizabeth Drive, Seton Boulevard, and San Mateo Avenue. "Higher Education" notes the college theme with Syracuse and Swarthmore Streets and Millsaps Place. Questions are peppered throughout the text, with answers provided at the end of the corresponding chapter. The guide also includes an index, allowing readers to locate a specific street. Full of Higgins' classic cleverness and wit, Metairie, Ames, High offers a fascinating peek at Jefferson Parish's past and its people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the accounts of 18th-century travelers to the interpretations of 21st-century historians, Jumonville lists more than 6,800 books, chapters, articles, theses, dissertations, and government documents that describe the rich history of America's 18th state. Here are references to sources on the Louisiana Purchase, the Battle of New Orleans, Carnival, and Cajuns. Less-explored topics such as the rebellion of 1768, the changing roles of women, and civic development are also covered. It is a sweeping guide to the publications that best illuminate the land, the people, and the multifaceted history of the Pelican State. Arranged according to discipline and time period, chapters cover such topics as the environment, the Civil War and Reconstruction, social and cultural history, the people of Louisiana, local, parish, and sectional histories, and New Orleans. It also lists major historical sites and repositories of primary materials. As the only comprehensive bibliography of the secondary sources about the state, ^ILouisiana History^R is an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers.
