Publisher description
Excerpt from Historical Sketch Book and Guide to New Orleans and Environs, With Map: Illustrated With Many Original Engravings; And Containing Exhaustive Accounts of the Traditions, Historical Legends, and Remarkable Localities of the Creole City
Mardi Gras festivities, with their mid-day and nocturnal pageants surpassing anything of the kind, will this year be a feature of the winter, and the pen fails to describe their splendor.
While all the country north of the Tennessee river is locked in ice its trees lea?ess and its homes stormed by fierce arctic winds, New Orleans smiles through the green Of orange and magnolia trees. Her gardens are bright and Odorous with ?owers; the streets are filled with loungers and sight-seers; all the Open-air resorts are crowded; there is a busy hum of gaiety and music and laughter everywhere.
