Its creoleness may be unique to the United States, but New Orleans is part of an entire family of Latin Caribbean cities with similar colonial histories. Founded as New World outposts of Old World empires, these cities forged new identities from European, West African, and indigenous influences--by turns inspired by, in defiance of, and adapted from all of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Creole World, author and photographer \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.richardsextonstudio.com\/\"\u003eRichard Sexton\u003c\/a\u003e explores the architectural and urban similarities among these cultural cousins, from Haiti, Colombia, Argentina, Cuba, Bolivia, and Ecuador back home to New Orleans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSetting the stage for the book's two hundred color photographs are essays by Creole-architecture scholar Jay D.
