From the introduction: "'Chez Les Canses' celebrates Kansas City's rich, sophisticated French history that surprisingly has direct ties to King Louis XIV at Versailles. Some of the most famous French and Canadians of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were associated with this area. Charles Hoffhaus tells of the people and the place - and presents the 'unknown' history in this fascinating work."
