The author, Jason LeGaux, focused this book on Louisiana decoy carving families with at least one living carver. The book also includes other carvers which were influenced by these families. An additional chapter was added to included some living carvers that were influenced by carving families who do not have any living makers.

      The chapters begin with the living and most recent carver and take you back step by step to the carver who started the "school."  This book is the only one of it's kind, in that as you turn each page you can see where each carver was influenced and compare the styles. No other book on Louisiana decoys is laid out this way.

      The author pulled no punches in telling it like it is, in regards to the politics of Louisiana decoys and the constant problems that plague this profession. You will be entertained with the readings and provided with an invaluable tool for your collecting future. The modern decoys of today are the treasures that will be chased tomorrow. Now you have a tool that shows you "where they came from" and a reassurance that the carvers within these pages are for real and have heritage, not just some guy who decided to cash in on the business.

      69 carvers, both alive and dead, 257 large color photos, 140 full color pages in hardcover format. 8.5"x11"
