"Neil Johnson, a native Shreveporter and one of Louisiana's finest photographers, here presents a lovingly crafted portrait of his hometown and its companion city across the Red River. No one else could have done it better. For longtime residents, Johnson's words and photographs will carry the comfortable familiarity of a family album - yet one that also holds new discoveries waiting to be made. For visitors, the book will be a powerful introduction and guide."--BOOK JACKET. "As veteran Shreveport journalist Jim Montgomery points out in his informative Foreword, Shreveport and Bossier City are a multifaceted place, a place of contrasts: a part of Louisiana, yet with an unmistakable touch of Texas; possessed of a Sun Belt vitality, yet cherishing strong links to the traditions of the Old South. Neil Johnson manages to capture on film the authentic diversity of this place of pulsating repose."--BOOK JACKET.
