Margie Moore

From "Phene" to "Josie": Louisiana Bayou Girl Margie Moore Large Type edition

A large print biographical book in narrative form drawn on first hand knowledge, family memories and photos. Josephine's story gives insight into bygone times of national hardship: the Great Depression and World War II. It tells of Cajun culture, farm and plantation life in South Louisiana, racial harmony and the bounty of the land. Later years deal with memory loss and faith in God who was there all the time. Written in a confiding, conversational, and folksy tone, it draws the remark, "I want to see what happens next" from those who have read excerpts. From "Phene" to "Josie" describes Josephine's journey from "Phene" in her youth to "Josie" in her golden years. ("Phene" rhymes with "clean".)
