Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New Orleans, City of Old Romance and New Oportunity: Southern Railway System New Orleans, (once an Indian portage, then a French settlement in the wilderness at the river end of the trail) is surrounded by an atmosphere of romance, daring and adventure, and the bravings of dangers and discomforts. Then followed a period of great harvests-of commerce-of prosperity-elegant leisure and social brilliancy, the breath of which lives even unto now. Then came years when the city was struggling for its very life-to arise slowly and gradually become the progressive city of great enterprises that it is today. The Civil War left her impoverished and the troubled years following further disorganized her resources, forced her to carry her heaviest burdens and struggle on under most discouraging handicaps. To visit New Orleans now is to enjoy its cosmopolitan make-up-to thrill with its present day progressiveness, and also-in the old French Quarter-peer behind the veil of its romantic and colorful past.
