Product Description
Seasoned traveller Kap Stann offers an insider's view of Georgia from eating at the best roadside rib joints to hiking the Peach State's rugged stretch of Appalachian Trail. Kap is a perfect tour guide, providing trip ideas like a Classic Savannah Weekend, the Old Atlantic Coast Highway, and the Barbecue Landmark Trail.Packed with information on dining, transportation, and accommodations, "Moon Georgia" has lots of options for a range of travel budgets. Every Moon guidebook includes recommendations for must-see sights and many regional, area, and city-centred maps. Complete with details on "shooting the hootch" (taking a lazy float trip down the Chattahoochee River), getting a lesson on Civil War history in Chickamauga, and heading to the coast to sample the barbecue at the Georgia Pig, "Moon Georgia" gives travellers the tools they need to create a more personal and memorable experience. With expert writers, first-rate strategic advice, and an essential dose of humour, "Moon Handbooks" are the cure for the common trip."Moon Handbooks" aren't your average guides. For more than 30 years, these books have appealed to an eclectic group of travellers, from backpacking students to solo adventurers to families on vacation (and a budget). With expert writers delivering a mix of honest insight, first-rate strategic advice, and an essential dose of humour, "Moon Handbooks" ensure that travellers have an uncommon and entirely satisfying experience - and a few new stories to tell.
About the Author
Kap Stann was born and raised in New York State, where most of the travelling she did was on family car trips up and down the East Coast. Now a seasoned traveller, Kap has visited 48 states, toured 10 European countries, worked as a Swiss maid, vacationed in Mexico, explored remote corners of Central America and Southeast Asia, and crossed the Andes on foot to Macchu Pichu. Even after all of these experiences, she still maintains that the American South is the most "unexpectedly exotic" place she has ever seen. Kap's first glimpse of the South took place on a trip to Georgia when she was in her late twenties. Today her travel guides cover every state south of the Mason-Dixon line, from Maryland to Louisiana. Prior to writing guidebooks, Kap was a freelance writer, covering health, labour, education, and women's issues. She has also worked in a media reform organization, and run the public affairs office for the University of San Francisco and UC Berkeley Extension. Kap and her daughter Cory live in Berkeley, California.

Most trips to Georgia start rightly in Atlanta, and even if you're eager to explore the back-country, take the opportunity to discover the capital's own wild side. Read the first page

A Peachy Handbook
19 Dec 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this book to help plan for our trip to Augusta. Within are over six pages devoted to the city and a section about the Augusta environs (middle Georgia). Moon's Handbook is a great tourist starting point that provides historic and cultural background about the entire state and specific locales within. Helpful are the sections on attractions, restaurants, and accomodations. Visitors to the larger cities like Atlanta, Savannah, or Athens will find extensive information about the cities and the ourskirts.
Readers will also enjoy the maps of large and small areas, but will probably want to supplement these with more detailed maps from other sources. Some quoted prices are probably no longer current, but they give the reader a good approximation at least and are good for comparative purposes.
