Old Mobile Fort Louis de la Louisiane, 1702-1711

&quote;Higginbotham has given to American historiography a microcosmic view of one of the earliest and most important outposts in the colonial new world. The Latin South can henceforth not be ignored.&quote; – Alabama Historical Quarterly&quote;The definitive account . . . superbly recounted.&quote; – Journal of Southern History &quote;Meticulously documented. . . . Recommended for libraries interested in the colonial period.&quote; – Choice&quote;Mind-boggling . . . a stupendous job of research. It is amazing that Higginbotham can recreate in such detail the lives of these people. All history books should be written like this.&quote; – BirminghamMagazine
