Summary:
"This book is a humble effort to put into condensed form the facts of the deportation of the Acadians"--From the Preface.
"Dudley Joseph LeBlanc (1894-1971) was an American Democratic, Roman Catholic, and Cajun member of the Louisiana State Senate whose entrepreneurial talents netted him a fortune through the patent medicine he invented known as Hadacol. LeBlanc was a staunch defender of preserving Cajun culture in Louisiana, spending years researching his genealogy, traveling to Canada, France and England, obtaining records about his French ancestors who had migrated to Nova Scotia, Canada (formerly Acadia, the French territory in the New World) then were exiled by the British in 1755. LeBlanc wrote and published three books: The True Story of the Acadians in 1927, a revised "improved version" of the first book in 1932, and The Acadian Miracle in 1966. The books are considered to be seminal works in Acadian history and culture"--From wikipedia.org website.
