In Louisiana, Yesterday and Today, three veteran newspapermen examine the history and character of one of America's most remarkable states. This comprehensive, entertaining work will inform natives of their rich heritage and familiarize others with the many sources of Louisiana's special charm.
In concise, thematic chapters, the authors discuss practically every aspect of Louisiana's history. They explore in depth many specific events and eras, including the Louisiana Purchase, the Battle of New Orleans, the Civil War and Reconstruction, and the rise of Huey P. Long. Illuminating Louisiana's wonderfully polyglot character, they trace the cultural milieu from earliest Indian days through the French and Spanish regimes into statehood. They tell of the pirate Jean Lafitte and the voodoo queen Marie Laveau, of the state's unique Cajun and Creole heritages, of the legendary red-light district of Storyville, and of the excitement and debauchery of Mardi Gras.
As a bonus, the book provides an incisive look at the state's 64 parishes as it portrays Louisiana's history, population, economy, culture, and outstanding tourist attractions, evincing the diversity -- most notably between north and south -- that characterizes the state. An excellent guide for visitors who wish to learn about Louisiana's past as well as its present attractions, Louisiana, Yesterday and Today will also beckon natives to rediscover their heritage and the cultural wonderland that exists in their own backyard.

I love these Vitamin C sugar-free suckers. The taste is amazing for being sugar-free. None of the sucks came broken and the size of the sucker is great for adults or kids.

🍭Love these Lollipops and they brush your teeth! Toddler approved
Flavor Name: Natural Fruit, Size: 8 Ounce (1 Pack)
These are great as a matter of fact the whole brand is great!! Like most grandparents I have a problem with saying no to sweet treats when my lil love bug wants them I found these on Amazon and they are sugar free vegan and actually clean their teeth! With kids being allergic to more and more I feel safe sending these to school as a treat for his class knowing nobody will be excluded! They taste amazing I’ve tried every flavor of lollipop 🍭 they sell ! I’ll pay a little more if I feel it’s healthy for his teeth and lil growing body ! There is sooo much sugar or corn syrup in candy these days I just think these are amazing! My grandson loves them and he said his friend s at preschool loved them too!!! Just try them you won’t be disappointed! Blue raspberry is my favorite taste just like a jolly rancher without all of the sugar and it’s cleaning their teeth! Win win !!!🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭
