Summary: Good book
Comment: I really like this book. I like how it spends the first part of the book giving a history of the Acadians, beginning in French (includes regions from where they came and some of their trades), how and where they lived in Canada, and what they did between their expulsion from Canada and before their arrival in Louisiana.
After it has given a rather detailed history, the book goes on to go into more detail about different aspects of Cajun life, such as architecture, weaving, etc.
The book was written in the seventies, so some aspects of it are clearly dated, however the history that it provides is really great.
I recommend this book as a good one to get a pretty detailed overview of Cajun history and Cajun life.
