Bayou Sara had a mile of cotton warehouses, plus extensive residential and commercial districts. Who were the hardworking immigrants who settled there, why did they come and from where, and why did they stay through floods and fires and wartime shelling for more than a century? This book answers some of those questions for the first time, with fascinating collections of early images and excerpts from memoirs, journals, and newspaper dispatches that shed some light on this intriguing ghost town.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anne Butler, Helen Williams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946160008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946160003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Louisiana\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.34d","brand":"Anne Butler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046601289983,"sku":"9781946160003","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_745965da-3178-40db-954b-38d31f7309ae.jpg?v=1684985452","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bayou-sara-anne-butler-9781946160003","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
