The most beautiful of America's fifty statehouses, the Louisiana capitol ranks second behind only the New Orleans Superdome as the state's leading tourist attraction-- and this comprehensive guide book shows why. Constructed in 1932 under the reign of Huey Long at a cost of only $5 million, the 34-story tower houses some of the most impressive examples of art deco architecture in America. A companion work to Pelican's lavish pictorial volume, "The Louisiana Capitol", published in 1977, this book is an ideal in-hand guide for on-site observation, appreciation, and understanding of the capitol's art and history.
