Title: Perrin captures Vermilion Parish history in new book
Publisher: The News Star
Date: 6/26/2011

I was privileged to have seen "Images of America: Vermilion Parish" take shape as Lafayette-Erath lawyer and author Warren A. Perrin compiled this impressive tome. The Arcadia trade paperback is now available in bookstores, marrying both old and fairly recent photos with historical information to provide a fabulous overview in pictures of historic Vermilion Parish.

Perrin writes of the parish's settlement by its variety of cultures, discusses the Acadian Diaspora, spotlights towns and hamlets, legends, musicians, entertainers, sports figures, education and so much more. It's likely residents of Acadiana will spot friends and family in these pages.

Vermilion native Perrin is president of the Council for the Development of French in Louisiana and is author of "Acadian Redemption: From Beausoleil Broussard to the Queen's Royal Proclamation."
