An in-depth look at a Louisiana Cajun community, the families who settled it, and its development over the course of the twentieth century.
Anthropologist William R. Ferris defined the study of regionalism as the study of the relation between people and the places in which they live. This book explores the area located in Louisiana's "French triangle," detailing the history of the people who migrated there, including the colonial French, Germans, Acadians, refugees from Santo Domingo, and immigrants from the French Revolution.
Erath, chartered in 1899, typified many of the small rural towns in Louisiana. The first settlers moving to Erath arrived in 1781. Originally a project of the Acadian Heritage and Cultural Foundation, A Century of Acadian Culture follows the town from its early years through its development into a center of Cajun heritage. It is anthropological in that it traces the development from wilderness to modern town, while in its coverage of the families who live there, it remains a fascinating work of history.
