Deer Island is a real place! Though fictionalized, the characters portray life in the lower Atchafalaya River Basin (specific to Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana) and its tributaries from 1840-1921. The Addison family legacy is expressed in the meticulously kept diaries of three generations of the family's matriarchs. Each of the two volumes can stand on its own merits, but the story invites the reader to experience both. Deer Island is a place where the fabric of life is tightly woven; mutual interests are cultivated. Each shared expression of some heartfelt emotion, each account of some uncommon event, each expounded detail of some ideal or conviction, each celebration of life and living communicated unashamedly and in a forthright manner, produces a colored fiber. The hues of these threads may be brilliant and appealing, or they may be dim and dismal, but each is applied to the pattern of the weave for all to witness.
