The Law and the Letter: A Story of the Province of Louisiana is a historical novel written by Mary Polk Winn and published in 1906. The story is set in the early 18th century, during the French colonial period in Louisiana. The protagonist, Claire Lorraine, is a young woman who is torn between her loyalty to her French heritage and her love for an American colonist, Jack Brandon. The novel explores the cultural and political tensions that existed between the French and American settlers in Louisiana at the time, as well as the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated society. Through Claire's journey, the novel also touches on themes of justice, honor, and the struggle for independence. Overall, The Law and the Letter is a compelling historical novel that provides a vivid portrayal of life in colonial Louisiana and the complex relationships that existed between its diverse inhabitants.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
