While Mardi Gras and Carnival are celebrated throughout the state of Louisiana the celebrations are very different . While some ride on horseback and some ride on floats, while some throw beads and doubloons some collect chickens and other ingredients for cooking up a meal. There are balls, parades and courir (at least in normal years) and this book explains them all.
It is a comprehensive resource for Carnival season throughout the state of Louisiana . This book is in hardcover , it is 189 pages and sells for $29.95 a copy.
