The Acadians : a people's story of exile and triumph / Dean Jobb.
"Starting in 1755, 10,000 people of French ancestry were expelled from their homes along Canada's east coast by a tyrannical British governor who acted with the complicity of American sympthizers. While some Acadians returned home to try to evade capture and forge a living, others made their way to the Spanish colony of Louisiana, where they farmed and fished and began the vibrant "Cajun" culture that is known around the world"--Back cover.
