by George Washington Cable (Author), Michael Kreyling (Introduction by)
Setting forth formidable arguments for racial equality, Cable's novel of feuding Creole families in early nineteenth-century New Orleans blends post-Civil War social dissent and Romanticism.
Born in New Orleans in 1844, George Washington Cable began his writing career as a columnist and reporter for local newspapers. A talent scout from Scribner's Monthly "discovered" the writer, and the nation's appetite for the exotic scenes and characters of the remnants of Creole civilization helped to make him popular. His first collection of Creole tales, Old Creole Days, was hailed as the equal of Hawthorne's tales of New England; Cable's first novel, The Grandissimes, was constantly in print during his lifetime. He died in 1925.
