"...the Québécois are, if anything, more annoying about their language than the French."
By far, yes.
I've seen that book you've got. It was a product, I suppose, of that 'American folk revival' of the 60s/70s - along with CODOFIL, and Cajun self-awareness/commercialization in general.
Sadly, Creoles had no such "pride boom", otherwise I could refer you to some killer sources for Colonial French and/or Creole. I mean, other than Valdman's work at Indiana University.
