Old New Orleans is truly George Washington Cable's main character. To be sure, the great Louisiana writer of the late 19th century populates his short stories with fictive personages who possess fascinating characteristics and do interesting things; but what ultimately gives Cable's work its power is the painstaking accuracy with which he conveys not only the physical locale, but also the spirit, of the fascinating and multicultural city of New Orleans.
