Publisher's Synopsis
Governors from Jimmie Davis to John Bel Edwards have occupied the "New" Louisiana Governor's Mansion with their families since its construction in 1963. This book provides a peek into the lives inside the building over the years, based on author interviews with the Edwards family and about twenty other former occupants, including four former governors. It also gives an overview of the mansion and its grounds, the kinds of activities that typically occur there, and how those who live in, work at, and visit the mansion are affected by its environment.
