Memories of the Old Plantation Home: A Creole Family Album by Laura Locoul Gore PDF
In 1936, Laura Locoul Gore compiled an account of nearly 100 years of life on a Louisiana sugar plantation named after her: "Laura Plantation". Her manuscript, recently found, details the the daily life and major events of the inhabitants, both free and slave, of her plantation. Laura's writings offer an insider's perspective into a Creole household, spanning four generations of love & greed, pride & betrayal, heroism & pettiness, violence & excess. And, her words are also an explanation as to why she rejected the traditional confines of the Creole world to become a modern American of the 20th Century.
Norman & Sand Marmillion are principals in the Laura Plantation Company and manage the historic Creole site in Vacherie, Louisiana. Norman has co-authored "A Child's Louisiana" and Sand recently re-published "Compair Lapin, The Original Tar Baby" by Alcee Fortier.
