Cajun Country Guide Tapa blanda - 1999 - 2nd Edición

de Macon Fry; Julie Posner

"The most valuable commodity for anyone exploring Cajun country", according to "The Times Picayune", shows visitors where to eat, dance, and have a good time. Directions, telephone numbers, prices, and vivid descriptions provide the most up-to-date information available.


Información de la editorial

There's just nowhere else but South Louisiana to find real knee-slapping, crowd-hooting Zydeco music. Even the big-city chefs can't cook up a Cajun meal the way they do at the roadside restaurants deep in the bayous of Acadiana. Likewise, no other guide matches the amount of in-depth information presented in Cajun Country Guide. It's a study of Cajuns that tells visitors how to find the sights, sounds, and flavors of one of America's most culturally unique regions.

Take a vacation to a part of our own country that, in some places, didn't even speak English until nearly fifty years ago. While modern technology is weeding out some of the one-of-a-kind qualities of this subculture, not all of them are gone, or even hard to find, if you know how to hunt for them. And there are no better hunters than authors Macon Fry and Julie Posner.

With the handy maps, reviews, and recommendations packed into the Cajun Country Guide, a trip to the bayous won't leave one feeling like a visitor, but more like a native who has come back home.

Descripción de contraportada

EXPLORE CAJUN COUNTRY, a land of black coffee and bayous, steaming crawfish and swamps, and miles of sun-drenched prairie stretching along Louisiana's Gulf Coast from the great River Road to the Texas border.

Cajun Country Guide provides visitors with the most information on the best:

- Creole and Cajun restaurants serving roasted game, fresh seafood, jambalaya, gumbo, �1/2touf�1/2e, alligator sauce piquante . . .

- Rustic seafood joints, roadside caf�1/2s, barbecue stands, and markets selling everything from boiled crawfish to Cajun beef jerky and boudin

- Cajun dance halls, tin-roof zydeco clubs, swamp-pop lounges, and restaurants where you can dance to the music of Cajun Country

- Swamp tours, gardens, hiking trails, alligator-and bird-watching spots

- Plantation tours, historic homes, small museums, and local craftsmen

- Bed and breakfasts, hotels, houseboat rentals, swamp cabins, and beach cottages

"Next to a wallet stuffed with greenbacks, this book may be the most valuable commodity for anyone exploring Cajun Country."
--The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune

"The authors take you to every run-down dancehall at the end of some unnamed road--where the bon temps really do rouler."

"A comprehensive guide to every shop, store, honky tonk, and food stand in the area."
--Touring America

"The most comprehensive guide to Cajun Country ever published."
--Juke Blues

"To call this book a labor of love is an understatement. Macon Fry worships at the shrine of Our Lady of the Authentic Down Home Experience. After perusing Cajun Country Guide you will want to join the congregation."
--Jazz Potpourri
