thanks!..just ordered one from ebay

If you have an interest for more material around the Grand dérangement, there are several book I can recommend.
In the interim, here's an interesting link that contains transcripts of the personal journal of Winslow who was a mid-level officer responsible for carrying out the order of deportation. His journal is one of the only pieces that describes in many details the ordeal of the deportation. Here's the link... Bonne lecture.... :-) Maz

for a good read I recommend THE CAJUNS: A PEOPLE'S STORY OF EXILE AND TRIUMPH This is a new book copyright 2005

Done at Grand Pre' is one I've read recently and it was informative as well. It is pretty unbiased and based on journals also.
