Description

Although this guide was issued before Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, the shops, restaurants, & other businesses whose stories this book tells -- places that have been here for three quarters of a century or more -- are vital to the city’s image of itself. In New Orleans, history is a vibrant part of the city, continually revived & nourished in the daily lives of the people who live here. In the Crescent City, no meal can be too big or last too long, & there’s a simple human wisdom in knocking a week off of work each spring to drink cocktails in excess & watch parades go by. Visitors can experience the old New Orleans within the walls of the old businesses listed in this guide. Includes historic & contemporary photos & illustrations.
