Going My Way: The Memoirs of Dwight Andrus Jr.

By Dwight Andrus and Dwight Andrus Jr

Dwight Andrus, sometimes called "the man that built Lafayette," has been a significant force in the city's business, civic, and social life for more than sixty-five years. In Going My Way, a collection of autobiographical essays, Andrus details his story, which includes much of Lafayette's history, beginning with his earliest memories from the 1930s. These extraordinary tales range from surprising (such as his time as a tap-dancing prodigy) to intriguing (particularly the building of Acadiana Mall) to terrifying (including several life-threatening hunting and fishing adventures). Throughout the book shines Andrus's lifelong love story with his wife, Nedra, as well as his love for the people and culture of Lafayette and Acadiana.
