OverviewThese pages are a story of struggle, poverty, loss, and love as told by someone who has lived it all. Born in the rural bayous of South Louisiana, Patricia delivers insight into a culture of people that most know little about, The Cajun Culture. It is a rare and dying culture. Hundreds of years ago, these people were forced out of Nova Scotia to plant roots along the Gulf Coat of Louisiana. For years those roots grew, forming a way of life that is still lived to some extent today. The language has changed over the years to adapt to English and perhaps they are not viewed as poor underclass people anymore, but they are known as a culture that relies on the water, the land, and family. Like all families of today and yesterday, nothing is easy. And for one little Cajun girl born in 1940, it was especially difficult. Her memoir describes her rise from a sharecropper-father and a young, bitter mother to achieving her most prominent dreams.
