"Why People Live in New Orleans" answers three implied questions: Why would anyone live in an area with environmental challenges that are presenting themselves to the world with increasing urgency? Why do current residents live here, knowing these challenges? What impacts do the unfolding events in the New Orleans area have on people living in the rest of the world? Though not a hurricane, travel, or history book, information about the city and positive details about hurricane and other issues accompany the human interest of why local residents have such tenacity and love for the area. The author's family's experiences and personal narrative provide cohesion. Interviews of a diverse group of adult and young residents provide additional voices and viewpoints. Local, national, and international sources provide information on relevant issues.
