New Orleans remembers. She lives. She loves. And her heart, beating for hundreds of years, following her own rhythm, is the French Quarter. Here, award-winning author and photographer Kerri McCaffety captures the majesty of the French Quarter and brings it to life in a luxurious parade of pictures and prose. Fabulous hotels, churches, fine restaurants, antique shops, and art galleries line the streets of the Quarter. But some of the most fascinating architecture -- that of private residences -- has never been photographed until now. Elaborate patios and secret gardens, hidden from the street, are captured here in all of their opulence. A look beyond the French Quarter facades reveals rare glimpses of antique-filled and artfully decorated interiors where reminders of French and Spanish ancestry, voodoo, and Mardi Gras sit on the mantles and hang on the walls. Through the long life of the French Quarter, its architectural styles have evolved. Much more than wrought iron balconies and the St Louis Cathedral, the French Quarter is a melange of European, Caribbean and American elements warmed by the Southern sun. Regardless of the specific styles, one truth remains -- the French Quarter retains its majesty. Beauty lingers here.
