Summary

Frommer's The Carolinas and Georgia 8th Edition is an unbeatable guide to some of the South's most popular places to visit, stay, and play. Our guide ranges from popular parks (Great Smoky Mountain) to fabulous beaches (the Outer Banks) to historic cities (Charleston) and must-see major metropolises (Atlanta). Travelers get the scoop on festivals, sporting events (the 2007 US Women's Open Championship), and new attractions such as the NASCAR Hall of Fame and the Billy Graham Library, opening in June 2007. Our book also comes complete with an indispensable foldout map.
