Shreveport, Louisiana, is a town with a history as fascinating as it is long. From the settlement of the area at the start of the nineteenth century, through the city’s founding in 1836, to Shreveport’s role as state capital during the Civil War, up until its present-day role as one of Louisiana’s leading cities, figures ranging from snagboat operators to Huey P. Long have worked, lived, and played in this city by the Red River.
