- Creole and Cajun restaurants serving roasted game, fresh seafood, jambalaya, gumbo, �touf�e, alligator sauce piquante . . .
- Rustic seafood joints, roadside caf�s, barbecue stands, and markets selling everything from boiled crawfish to Cajun beef jerky and boudin
- Cajun dance halls, tin-roof zydeco clubs, swamp-pop lounges, and restaurants where you can dance to the music of Cajun Country
- Swamp tours, gardens, hiking trails, alligator-and bird-watching spots
- Plantation tours, historic homes, small museums, and local craftsmen
- Bed and breakfasts, hotels, houseboat rentals, swamp cabins, and beach cottages
"Next to a wallet stuffed with greenbacks, this book may be the most valuable commodity for anyone exploring Cajun Country."
--The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune

--Touring America
"The most comprehensive guide to Cajun Country ever published."
--Juke Blues
"To call this book a labor of love is an understatement. Macon Fry worships at the shrine of Our Lady of the Authentic Down Home Experience. After perusing Cajun Country Guide you will want to join the congregation."
--Jazz Potpourri
