Download or read book City of a Million Dreams written by Jason Berry and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, the beautiful jazz funeral in New Orleans for composer Allen Toussaint coincided with a debate over removing four Confederate monuments. Mayor Mitch Landrieu led the ceremony, attended by living legends of jazz, music aficionados, politicians, and everyday people. The scene captured the history and culture of the city in microcosm--a city legendary for its noisy, complicated, tradition-rich splendor. In City of a Million Dreams, Jason Berry delivers a character-driven history of New Orleans at its tricentennial. Chronicling cycles of invention, struggle, death, and rebirth, Berry reveals the city's survival as a triumph of diversity, its map-of-the-world neighborhoods marked by resilience despite hurricanes, epidemics, fires, and floods. Berry orchestrates a parade of vibrant personalities, from the founder Bienville, a warrior emblazoned with snake tattoos; to Governor William C. C. Claiborne, General Andrew Jackson, and Pere Antoine, an influential priest and secret agent of the Inquisition; Sister Gertrude Morgan, a street evangelist and visionary artist of the 1960s; and Michael White, the famous clarinetist who remade his life after losing everything in Hurricane Katrina. The textured profiles of this extraordinary cast furnish a dramatic narrative of the beloved city, famous the world over for mysterious rituals as people dance when they bury their dead.

Download or read book The Private Life of Jean Baptiste Le Moyne Sieur De Bienville written by Peter J. Hamilton and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Private Life of Jean Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur De Bienville: I. A Colonial Letter; II. Reminiscences; III. The Mississippi Bubble; IV. In the Paris of Louis XV; V. A French Will; Vi; Montmartre An attempt has here been made to picture some of the scenes in the private life of the founder of Mobile, New Orleans. Natchez, and the explorer of the Mississippi Valley. His public career is almost the history of the country, and is found in Miss Grace Kings Life of Bienville; but the movement to erect a statue of him has brought the wish to picture the man himself. The facts now given are authentic. His letter and will are given Jodoin and Vincents Longueuil. I have transcripts of his dispatches, and much in the way of maps and otherwise is in my Colonial Mobile. If imagination has aided in the coloring, it is hoped that it is the historic imagination which restores rather than creates.
