This Spotlight travel guide is everything a guide should be. Highly Recommended.

Format:Taschenbuch
For a week I visited St. Simons, Brunswick, St. Mary's, Darian etc. and I took with me three guides: Fodor's: Carolinas & Georgia, Frommer's: Carolinas & Georgia and Moon's. Of these guides, especially for this area, Moon's was, hands down, the best.
Moon's `Spotlight' series are taken from the full Moon travel guide. Spotlight selects a unique area and, in the case of this guide, does a brilliant job. This guide will lead you to places that you may not have discovered and sights that you could have otherwise passed by.
The accommodation and dining recommendations are great and on the money. This guide lists the best restaurants that this area has to offer. I like reading author Jim Morekis' reviews, he is candid; pointing out point out the flaws a place has, as well as heaping on the praise. He has a flair for spotlighting the unique. In one eatery, The Crab Shack on Tybee Island, he writes, "So don't expect fine gourmet fare... the emphasis is on mounds of fresh, tasty seafood, heavy on the raw bar action, all in a very casual and boisterous outdoor atmosphere... Did I mention the alligators?..." I also commend Morekis for his historical tidbits. Also, a nice extra in this guide was the section on the Okefenokee Swamp. Kudos.
There is no history or culture section per say, it is actually the entire book. Wonderful. Unlike Frommer's or Fodor's this book does have maps that help locate the restaurants and lodging, but, sadly, they are not easy to read, too crowded and busy. Moon could take a lesson from Lonely Planet on how to design great locator maps.
So, if you are just going to Savannah or the Ga. Coast then "Moon Savannah and the Georgia Coast" should be at the top of your list. Highly recommended. 4.5 Stars.

A Savannah Destination? Get This Book

I bought this book because we hope to hit Savannah while on our two week stay in Augusta. This is a very comprehensive book with extensive history and background of Savannah and environs; such information adds variety and interest to this guide book. From the 1700's and James Oglethorpe to the present, the author interweaves nuggets about favorite "sons" (like Paula Dean), and Savannah connected artists, art, books, movies, songs, and famous personalities.
The book includes some helpful street maps that are good starting points for the tourist. I've ordered more extensive maps to supplement the ones in this book. Savannah and the Georgia Coast contains plenty of information for someone planning a trip to Savannah, its outskirts, Brunswick and Glynn County, Jeckyl Island, St. Simons Island, Okefenokee Swamp, and others.
There are plenty of photos in this book that are helpful despite being in black and white.
Prices for food and accomodations can be found here, and I must say that some of them made me glad I was sitting down while reading.
Having two dogs with whom we almost always travel, I was disappointed that there is no mention of traveling with pets and no mention of places that accept pets or references to people or agencies who will pet sit. Other than that little omission, I'm pleased with the information in this little book.

We have been to the Savannah area several times. On a trip last month we used the Moon Spotlight book exclusively. We found the book to be very accurate and well organized. An afternoon in the historic district was planned using the map on page 15 in conjunction w the following pages of dialogs covering each historic square. It took about 30 minutes to map out an itinerary for the whole afternoon in the district. We felt that we had the best orientation to the historic district in this very small book. We believe that this book is the only guide you need in order to enjoy Savannah and the South Georgia Coast. Highly Recommended.
