Between 1717 and 1731, the French Company of the Indies held a virtual monopoly over Louisiana culture and trade. Focusing on the travels and travails of Marc-Antoine Caillot, a company clerk who set sail for Louisiana in 1729, Greenwald deftly examines the company's role as colonizer, developer, slaveholder, commercial entity, and deal maker.
