THEY TASTED BAYOU WATER
Iberia Parish is one of the oldest settlements in the state of Louisiana, with a long and important history. Bergerie has condensed this history into a readable and informative book.

They Tasted Bayou Water is a result of the writer's interest in the history of her home parish, an interest that was stirred early in life by tales of family and local history.
