Between the World Wars, New Orleans transformed its image from that of a corrupt and sullied port of call into that of a national tourist destination. Stanonis tells how boosters and politicians reinvented the city to build a modern mass tourism industry and fundamentally changed the city's cultural, economic, racial, and gender structure.
