Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lovers of Louisiana (to-Day) Until within a few years of the date here following, more Creoles lived elegantly in Esplanade Street (now Avenue) than on any other equal length of thoroughfare in New Orleans. In 1914, lengthened far out to Bayou Saint John, with its two separate roadways and a grassy tree-planted parkway between them, it still was socially best among the score of streets, once so short, of the old Franco-Spanish city. One of its most attractive dwellings, of brick under a rich brown stucco, was near Rampart Street. It may be gone now. It was of three stories, the first sixteen feet high, the second twelve. That was for coolness. A dozen yards back from the sidewalk, in courtly dignity, without a blemish of architectural parade, this fair home awaited its visitors' approach through a gate of wrought-iron openwork in a wall eight feet high, also of brown stucco and covered, the year round, with climbing roses. Along the wall's coping ran an iron balustrade patterned to match the gate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tableaux of New Orleans Practical men (so called) who have speculated so much upon the remedial measures necessary for New Orleans, without having done anything, cannot reasonably object to further inquiry. Although New Orleans needs railroads without delay - the one north of the Ohio, and the other west to the Rio Grande - with but a small probability of getting either very soon - yet these alone, so long as capital and capitalists absent themselves and take up their abode else where - se long as manufactures, ship-building and the like, are neglected, will not make the city what she ought to be - the mistress of the two Americas. But perhaps a new generation must he waited for, as the present one seems to think that the South is adapted to the production, but not to the manufacturing of the raw material. It is but too true that the population of New Orleans has not increased as rapidly as that of New York. But this fact is not of itself a sure harbinger of an approaching ruin, that shall number New Orleans with fallen Babylon, Nineveh, Palmyra and Thebes. Louisiana, a com paratively new State, whose natural advantages are scarcely known - certainly not developed-is, nevertheless, prosperous, if commercial superiority be a criterion. Take, for example, a year that of 1840, ending with September, in which the whole domestic produce exported from the United States was in value of which Louisiana alone exported - say thirty-three millions - one-third of the whole equal to nearly one hundred dollars for every per son, white and black, in the State; while the residue of the United States afi'ords only forty four dollars as the average expert for each individual. Thus, Louisiana exports about four times more than Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey and Delaware united, and about one-third more than the great State of New York. This exorbitant commercial superiority in favor of Louisiana, may have been somewhat diminished of late. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He was playing carelessly, and had lost four games, a thing that had never happened before, for whether it was that Monsieur Landry was the better player, or whether it was that Father Martain was too considerate to beat him, he invariably won.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Quadroon, or a Lover's Adventures in Louisiana It will scarcely be necessary to say that the names and some of the places mentioned in this book are fictitious. Some of the scenes, and many of the characters that figure in these pages are real, and there are those living who will recognise them. The book is founded upon actual experience. It was written many years ago, and would have been then published, but for the interference of a well-known work, which treated of similar scenes and subjects. That work appeared just as the quadroon was about to be put to press; and the author of the latter, not willing to risk the chances of being considered an imitator, had determined on keeping the quadroon from the public.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Creole Days IN the heart of New Orleans stands a large four story brick building, that has so stood for about three-quarters of a century. Its rooms are rented to a class of persons occupying them simply for lack of activity to find better and cheaper quarters elsewhere. With its gray stucco peeling off in broad patches, it has a solemn look of gentility in rags, and stands, or, as it were, hangs, about the corner of two ancient streets, like a faded fop who pretends to be looking for employment.
