The Cajuns

The past sixty years have shaped and reshaped the group of French-speaking Louisiana people known as the Cajuns. During this period, they have become much like other Americans and yet have remained strikingly distinct. The Cajuns: Americanization of a People explores these six decades and analyzes the forces that had an impact on Louisiana's Acadiana. In the 1940s, when America entered World War II, so too did the isolated Cajuns. Cajun soldiers fought alongside troops from Brooklyn and Berkeley and absorbed aspects of new cultures. In the 1950s as rock 'n' roll and television crackled across Louisiana airwaves, Cajun music makers responded with their own distinct versions. In the 1960s, emp...

With the frankness and clarity of someone whose life has been lived to the full, Sam Hughes tells the story of that life, from his early years in Victoria, BC – his father was a chief engineer at Canadian Northern Railway – to his many years on the bench in Ontario as a Supreme Court judge.

The Bluff

Mention `the Bluff¿ anywhere along the Mississippi coast and chances are people will know where you are talking about. It consists of a quick stop and liquor store, a boat launch and bait shop. There is a pumping station, a community of houseboat dwellers and a waterfront subdivision. The centerpiece of the area and `the Bluff¿ most often referred to, is a roadhouse bar that features cold beer, slate pool tables and cheap well drinks. Five nights a week a solid, Southern rock band plays host to a who¿s who list of unvarnished local talent. It has the unsavory reputation as the place to be. It has been like that for twenty-five years. Out back is a permanently occupied, eight-unit motel. The rent is cheap and the livin¿ is easy.
