Table of ContentsReviewsA 2014 Humanities Book of the Year Dr. Cenac s stunningly designed book provides a comprehensive account of the nuanced world of cattle ranching, an integral part of South Louisiana culture since the beginning of European settlement. Through substantive writing and previously unpublished images and photographs of recovered artifacts, Cenac conjures insights into the lives of farmers and families in Terrebonne Parish. An orthopedic surgeon, Cenac wrote his first book, <i>Eyes of an Eagle</i>, by combing through courthouse documents for the original brand registration of his great grandfather. During this research, he uncovered ledger books that capsulized glimpses into the citizenry of the early agrarian foundations of the area. These ledgers are the basis for this landmark chronicle.
