Description: Ghosts Along The Mississippi by Clarence J Laughlin (Hardcover, Very Good) Revised Edition The Magic of the Old Houses of Louisiana....Illustrated with 100 photographs This book contains 100 superb photographs by the author, but it is more than just a collection of beautiful pictures. It is a vivid history, in word and picture, of the rise and fall of Louisiana plantation culture, and the resultant manifestations in the architectural forms of the region. Perhaps most important of all, it reaffirms the fact that true beauty cannot die; that, in Louisiana, it can live even amid the great ruined houses, as well as among those which have been restored. The plates are accompanied by facing texts containing factual data, along with the author's comments. The imaginative scope of the photographs and the often poetic nature of the text leave an indelible impression of the grandeur and graciousness that were embodied in these beautiful homes.
