Creoles of Color are rightfully among the first families of south-western Louisiana. Yet in both antebellum and postbellum periods they remained a people considered apart from the rest of the population. Historians, demographers, sociologists, and anthropologists have given them only scant attention. This probing book, focused on the mid-eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries, is the first to scrutinize this multiracial group through a close study of primary resource materials. During the antebellum period they were excluded from the state¿s three-tiered society¿white, free people of color, and slaves. Yet Creoles of Color were a dynamic component in the region¿s economy, for they were self-compelled in efforts to become and integral part of the community.
