These three charming Southern "capitals" (including the oldest in America) are massively popular tourist destinations because of their well-preserved architecture (capturing the ante-bellum life of the 1860s and the Spanish colonial era, in the case of St. Augustine), their active theatre scene (especially in Charleston), their numerous museums and historic homes, their remarkable restaurants, and the unique personality of their civic life and residents. You dip into an earlier era when youvisit them. Our Easy Guide captures the best of their facilities and attractions in condensed form, confining its 256 pages and maps to the outstanding highlights of all three cities.
