Interactive, multimedia presentations make exploring Acadian culture and history fun and easy on this CD-ROM that is
conveniently divided into sections on culture, history, genealogy, and even tours of Nova Scotia and the Maritimes.
Users can witness the progression of the series of deportations, take a virtual tour of a historical village like Grand Pr, and listen to songs by artists like 1755, the most popular musical group in Acadian history. In the process they may better understand just who the Acadians are. And with a dictionary that can be heard as well as read, comprehending the French language becomes much easier, too.
Noted children's book author Sheila Hebert Collins has written Jean-Paul Hebert Was There, a story that is included on the CD-ROM. She is the author of Les Trois Cochons, Jolie Blonde and the Three Heberts, Cendrillon: A Cajun Cinderella, and Petite Rouge: A Cajun Twist to an Old Tale. Mrs. Collins also is the narrator of the audiocassette compilation of the last two books. All are published by Pelican. Acadia works on both Macintosh and PC systems. Also available in English.
