The Cajuns are Coming to New Orleans!

And while the University of Lafayette New Orleans Bowl parties rage on, some will take the time to find out why it took them hundreds of years to get here.

Lodged among all the party stations set up for ULL at the New Orleans Marriott Hotel for the big bowl game, Host Home Bank President John Bordelon decided to squeeze in a little history. Historian Warren Perrin will be signing and selling his book Acadie Then and Now: A People's History and educating anyone who'll listen about the French exiles around the world, though best known as the Acadians of Louisiana.

Date/Time:

December 19, 3:30 p.m.

Where:
19th floor, Marriott Hotel, 555 Canal St., New Orleans, LA 70130

For media inquiries, and book and interview requests, contact Jonathan Barnes, 504-897-6110, bcobarnes@aol.com or Warren Perrin, 337-501-3049.

BACKGROUND
This book, edited by Mr. Perrin and including his original contributions, is a collection of 65 articles by 55 authors on the Acadians and Cajuns living today in the American states of Louisiana, Texas, and Maine who can trace their history back to an original French settlement in today's Nova Scotia in 1605. The collection provides the readers with new insights on the past, present, and future of the Acadian descendants from all the Acadies of the world.
