The French background of our early history is evident in the famous French Quarter. During a cruise of the Mississippi River and the bayous on the paddle boat Mark Twain, youll see oaks and magnolia trees, as well as cypress, palmettoes and willows as you glide through the bayous where Jean Lafitte and his notorious buccaneers once lived. Lafitte operated as a privateer and smuggler under cover of a blacksmith shop. When the United States outlawed the importing of slaves in 1808, Lafitte had a new source of profit. He controlled imports to New Orleans and commissioned his ship captains to capture ships and cargoes of enemy nations (British and French at the time). In 1814 an English captain offered Lafitte a large sum and commission to help the British attack New Orleans. Instead, Lafitte became an American patriot, told Governor Claiborne of the impending attack. He and his men helped during the battle and fought well. moss-cover- ed Later President James Madison pardoned Lafitte and his men for piracy. He was the last great figure in historys line of dashing pirates. We are fortunate to have reservations at the New Orleans Marriott Hotel right in the French Quarter on famous Canal street.
