These twelve stories, set in the past and in the present, introduce the reader to some fictional denizens of the spicy gumbo that makes up the Pelican State.Some with happy endings, some not, these stories lead the reader through their characters' coping with issues they have created themselves or have had thrust upon them, all within the context of the time and place in which they find themselves and the moral and religious stances of their various cultures.
