Canal Street New Orleans' Great Wide Way

"Peggy Scott Laborde has a gift of presenting New Orleans history with great heart. This book shows us why generations of New Orleanians have loved the magic of one of America's great streets. We need to understand that magic now more than ever." --Angela Hill, WWL-TV anchor, New Orleans"It is required that we know our past to understand our present, and John Magill is aware of how important this is to all of us at this time in our history as a great city. Canal Street: New Orleans' Great Wide Way presents the evolution of the Crescent City's beloved main street--a street that might be said to contain more history in its few short miles than most cities can muster as a whole." --Priscilla Lawrence, executive director, The Historic New Orleans Collection"A wonderful tale of a city and how it grew. Peggy knows how to resurrect memories that have been forgotten." --Ronnie Virgets, New Orleans columnistLaborde, Peggy Scott is the author of 'Canal Street New Orleans' Great Wide Way', published 2006 under ISBN 9781589803374 and ISBN 158980337X.
