Description:
Walking Hill Country Towns
Diane Capito
This enlarged and updated second edition of the classic guidebook by Diane Capito expands the coverage of the original edition, first published in 2001, to 41 walks in 28 towns. Descriptions of points of interest in 5 more towns are added for good measure. The carefully detailed maps guide you along main streets and down the unbeaten byways that define a town s soul. The author planned and researched the routes, then had others try the walks and check her information. There are precise directions plus locations of convenient parking, restrooms and restaurants. Sections on each town begin with a historical summary, followed along each route by a wealth of long-buried historical details that bring hundreds of small-town landmarks to life. The index offers a quick checklists of cemeteries, courthouses, museums, parks, nature trails and even, for five towns, eyewitness accounts of ghosts, one of which the author swears she encountered herself during preparation of the book. Though the routes are designed for comfortable walking, they are easily adapted for bicycling and driving as well. |
