Summary: New Acadia
Comment: Great book! Somewhat academic, but a very interesting and informative work on the Acadians.

Rating: 2
Summary: Wasn't the best book i've read
Comment: Longer than it should have been, a lot of it seemed very repetative. Written like a college thesis. Would not read it again for anything. Had some interesting things in it, but i thing they could have been found elsewhere through a better presentation of information.

Rating: 5
Summary: New Acadia
Comment: The Acadians are North Americans of French descent who have been in the Western Hemisphere for nearly 400 years. During that time they have remained a relatively homogeneous group. The early history of the Acadians has been previously well-documented. Dr. Brasseaux, a history scholar-teacher, has been heard telling students to investigate their roots in their studies. In this well researched and written volume, he has done just that himself. He relates in easily readable form the settling of Acadian South Louisiana. He is fortunate to have a large collection of Spanish Colonial documents literally at his fingertips to assist in his research. His book is a "must read" for anyone who wants the real picture of the beginnings of Acadiana.
