From the Back Cover
"Historic Baton Rouge is remarkably well-researched, thoughtful, and fair-minded. Sylvia Frank Rodrigue and Faye Phillips manage to compress a wide range of valuable information into one careful, comprehensive, readable little volume. Whereas much Louisiana history tends to be an extended view of what happened in New Orleans, this study places Baton Rouge in its rightful place as the state's interesting capital, a vibrant city with its own problems, personality, and achievements. Historic Baton Rouge is especially fine when discussing the Spanish colonial period, and gives attention to race relations throughout the city's history. This succinct book is a most worthy contribution to the state's history." Christian Vella, Historian, Author, Louisiana Author of the Year.
