A 'must' for any who would understand the roots of modern New Orleans',
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Creating the Big Easy: New Orleans And the Emergence of Modern Tourism, 1918-1945 (Paperback)
CREATING THE BIG EASY: NEW ORLEANS AND THE EMERGENCE OF MODERN TOURISM, 1918-45 is especially important today as the city struggles to rebuild and redefine itself. It's a survey of tourism-based development and the cultural and economic forces that transformed New Orleans from a port to a national tourist destination. Urban development, historic preservation and taxes along with the city's efforts to promote its cultural heritage to outsiders makes for an in-depth survey on how visitors are enticed by an image of an urban area's past and present. A 'must' for any who would understand the roots of modern New Orleans' development and the task at hand for rebuilding it.Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch |
