Synopsis
A descriptive bibliography of books, pamphlets, and broadsides and other ephemera issued during the first 100 years of printing in New Orleans. Organized by years, the entries are arranged in a clear and easy-to-read format and provide information that was previously unavailable in a compiled form.
The search for New Orleans imprints included 85 librairies and historical societies, resulting in over 3,300 entries. The introduction, a history of printing in the city, discusses subject content in New Orleans publications, the rise of English-language printing, and the evolution of official printing.

From the Publisher
Designed to last, the volume is Smyth-sewn and casebound in library- and museum-approved materials; it is printed on acid-free paper. An invaluable tool for scholars and collectors.
Review
It is an immaculate work where Miss Jumonville's ingenuity, tenacity, and enthusiasm have produced a tour de force. A must for anyone interested in the area, and or course, essential to every library where history is studied. -- P. William Filby, Fellow and former President, Manuscript Society
