Early Thursday Book CoverHurricane Audrey 63rd Anniversary

On the 63rd Anniversary of Hurricane Audrey
A New Novel Depicts the Deadly Storm’s Fury:

Early Thursday:

A War, A Hurricane, A Miracle!

Cameron, Louisiana — A rich and sweeping fictional memoir, told through the voice of 12-year-old Walt LaCour, as he struggles to find himself and learn his true identity amid the backdrop of a terrifying and deadly Hurricane Audrey on the Cajun bayou in post-World War II Louisiana.

June 27th marked the 63rd anniversary of one of the most devastating tropical storms to hit the coastal United States.

“Early Thursday: A War, A Hurricane, A Miracle!” tells the story of a boy’s mostly idyllic life interrupted by the wrath of Mother Nature. Author Linda S. Cunningham was 9 years old during Hurricane Audrey and her father was the director of civil defense for the local parish.

Based on her recollections, she delivers a powerful and moving portrait of the days and events leading up to and following the cataclysmic storm.

Twelve-year-old Walt LaCour has a happy, adventurous existence in the Cajun-French area of Cameron, Louisiana, where the way of life is filled with joie de vivre.
