About the Book
The Cajun Prairie Restoration Project in Eunice, Louisiana is a 30 year old project carried out by scientists and volunteers. This book uses photographs to tell the story of this project and to celebrate the volunteers who made the project possible. The Cajun Prairie Habitat Preservation Society maintains the site, educates interested groups and provides tours of the site. The book is in essence the scrapbook of the author--an evolutionary ecologist who played a role in the project origination. This book also celebrates the City of Eunice and its university, Louisiana State University Eunice.
