Down in New Orleans: True Stories of a Fabled City tells narratives of the people, places and events that have given the city on the Mississippi River its character and soul. Over three hundred years since French adventurers arrived on the lower Mississippi, this book describes the personalities, motivations, emotions, temperaments and experiences of the people over those centuries. Surprises and intrigue populate the pages. The struggles of French, Spanish, Native Americans, persons of African descent, native born Creoles and Americans all of whom played major roles are described.
