Majesty of the French Quarter Postcard Book, The (Majesty Series)
"McCaffety knows how to capture the fleeting beauty of a moment." --The Times-Picayune In Old Creole Days, George Washington Cable described the French Quarter succinctly: "Beauty lingers here." More than a century later, award-winning photographer and writer Kerri McCaffety proves it.  From popular pictures of St. Louis Cathedral to never-before-published images of family home interiors, Ms. McCaffety captures the Quarter's most majestic architectural marvels in these thirty resplendent postcards. Kerri McCaffety counts among her accolades the 1999 Gold Lowell Thomas Award for a self-illustrated article from the Society of American Travel Writers, and the 1998 Author of the Year award from the New Orleans Gulf South Booksellers Association. Her first book, Obituary Cocktail: Great Saloons of New Orleans, was named one of 1998's best books of the year by the New Orleans Times-Picayune.  Ms. McCaffety's stunning work also graces The Majesty of the French Quarter Notecards and the companion volume, The Majesty of the French Quarter. Both are published by Pelican.
