Book excerpt: As my 81st birthday passes, I want to leave these memories of lifetime spent studying and recording our wetland heritage in a more permanent and accessible form. Voices From The Bayou, chronicles many of these old voices in a nostalgic trip down memory lane. Every wrinkle, every crease in their faces, the leathery sheen of skin blasted with salt spray and hurricane force winds tells the story of their fight to survive. Voices From The Bayou tells the story in print of the years spent recording in audio form their memories of an earlier year. Theirs was a generation that lived off the land. Money was scarce so barter was frequently substituted. Devout, unlettered, family-oriented, the sincerity of their beliefs shines through in their recollection of the long ago. They speak of shooting ducks by the basket full from a source that at the time seemed unlimited.
