description: Coud New Orleans have withstood the wrath of Katrina? Read about it on page 208 A-B (just added). Beautiful Crescent is a good short basic history of New Orleans--and more. It's a foundation, a springboard, and appetizer--just enough factual political history, just enough "people" history to tantalize and whet the appetite. The wonderful lists of govenors, mayors, noted personalities, and chronology make this fun and interesting for everyone who loves New Orleans and her colorful history.
