George Santos has lost his job, his wife, his savings, and his best friend in one afternoon. He has nothing left to live for, until he stops at the smallest bar in the French Quarter for a final drink. The people that he meets, and the adventures he encounters, force him to reexamine the world, reality, and his place in it. French Quarter Saints is set in New Orleans as it was in 1972. The city, and the world, are in turmoil as young people question traditional roles and views. The book is carefully researched and persons who are interested in the New Orleans of 1972 and its rich, vibrant history, as well as the joyful music of the Crescent City, are invited to come along for the ride.

John R. Greene was born and raised in New Orleans. He attended the University of New Orleans (UNO), off and on, and graduated with a BA in Anthropology in 1979. He worked his way through college as a dry cleaner, cemetery caretaker, and as a student worker at the Archaeological and Cultural Research Program (ACRP) of UNO. He worked as a professional archaeologist for the ACRP, focusing on both the historic and prehistoric archaeology of southeastern Louisiana, from 1980-88. During his time at the ACRP, he completed all course work for a BS and MS in Geology from UNO. Following that, he worked as a marine archaeologist and social scientist for the Minerals Management Service, Department of the Interior, until 1998. After leaving the Department of the Interior, he began a new career as an exploration geologist and worked for the next two decades as an independent geologist. He has an abiding love for the history, culture, geology, and geography of New Orleans and southeastern Louisiana matched by a passion for music. He lives on a small farm on the North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain with his wife, Patti, their dog, Elly, and two horses.
