520    Every June the city of Lowell, Massachusetts, celebrates 
       Franco-American Day, raising the Franco-American flag and 
       hosting events designed to commemorate French culture in 
       the Americas. Though there are twenty million French 
       speakers and people of French or francophone descent in 
       North America, making them the fifth-largest ethnic group 
       in the United States, their cultural legacy has remained 
       nearly invisible. Events like Franco-American Day, however,
       attest to French ethnic permanence on the American 
       topography. In Franco-America in the Making, Jonathan K. 
       Gosnell examines the manifestation and persistence of 
       hybrid Franco-American literary, musical, culinary, and 
       media cultures in North America, especially New England 
       and southern Louisiana. To shed light on the French 
       cultural legacy in North America long after the formal end
       of the French empire in the mid-eighteenth century, 
       Gosnell seeks out hidden French or "Franco" identities and
       sites of memory in the United States and Canada that 
       quietly proclaim an intercontinental French presence, 
       examining institutions of higher learning, literature, 
       folklore, newspapers, women's organizations, and churches.
       This study situates Franco-American cultures within the 
       new and evolving field of postcolonial Francophone studies
       by exploring the story of the peoples and ideas 
       contributing to the evolution and articulation of a Franco
       -American cultural identity in the New World. Gosnell asks
       what it means to be French, not simply in America but of 
       America.
