About this product

Product Information

Located in northwestern Louisiana, DeSoto Parish exemplifies the evolution of the Southern frontier. The parish was an early Louisiana meeting ground of Frenchmen from Natchitoches, who settled along Bayou Pierre and traded with the native Caddo Indians. In the 1840s, subsistence agriculture, cattle, and moderate trade were joined by the agriculture of the cotton kingdom with its flood of new settlers, who built small farms and sizable plantations. In the late 19th century, the economy diversified as the whistle of the railroad echoed against the roar of the lumber mills. Inhabiting new station-stop towns, DeSoto Parish residents built schools, filled churches, and settled their disputes in a fine new courthouse in the parish seat of Mansfield. Comings and goings, frozen by the flash of a camera, are presented in Images of America: DeSoto Parish.

Title: History of DeSoto Parish Told Through Photographs Publisher: Arcadia Publishing Date: 6/13/2011 The newest addition to Arcadia Publishing's popular Images of America series is DeSoto Parish from local authors Emilia Gay Griffith Means and Liz Chrysler. The book boasts more than 200 vintage images and memories of days gone by. Located in northwestern Louisiana, DeSoto Parish exemplifies the evolution of the Southern frontier. The parish was an early Louisiana meeting ground of Frenchmen from Natchitoches, who settled along Bayou Pierre and traded with the native Caddo Indians. In the 1840s, subsistence agriculture, cattle, and moderate trade were joined by the agriculture of the cotton kingdom with its flood of new settlers, who built small farms and sizable plantations. In the late 19th century, the economy diversified as the whistle of the railroad echoed against the roar of the lumber mills. Inhabiting new station-stop towns, DeSoto Parish residents built schools, filled churches, and settled their disputes in a fine new courthouse in the parish seat of Mansfield. Comings and goings, frozen by the flash of a camera, are presented in DeSoto Parish. Highlights of DeSoto Parish: ? Almost all of the images in the book were donated from private collections of local residents. ? The book is organized chronologically, beginning from the French and Spanish settlers, to the founding of the parish and the effect of the railroads. ? The book also focuses on lost structure and existing historical sites in the major towns, communities and villages and the story behind each community and structure.
