If variety is the spice of life, then Louisiana's history is a red-hot gumbo. Roadside History of Louisiana is a piquant adventure through Shreveport, Baton Rouge, and, of course, the Big Easy, as well as historic plantations, tiny bayou towns, and old railroad stops. 

Following the Pelican State's highways and scenic byways through small towns and urban centers, this delightful guide will enlighten both residents and visitors wishing to learn about Louisiana's flavorful past.
