Between the World Wars, New Orleans transformed its image from a corrupt and sullied port of call into a national tourist destination. The author tells how boosters and politicians reinvented the city to build a modern mass tourism industry and, along the way, fundamentally changed the city's cultural, economic, racial, and gender structure.
