Incredible journies

An excellent guide to what to do when the spirit moves, the time allows and the the journey means as much as the destination. A well-written, delightful read. ~Candace

Big Easy and the 2 Hour Tourist

If you are visiting New Orleans for a week and want to see where the locals visit on their day trips - this is the book. The author has done a great job mapping out fun trips for anyone with a car. If you have just moved into the New Orleans area - get this book. The author really covered a lot of territory; and it is fun reading. I am on my 3rd copy - I buy the book, "lend" it out, and then have to buy another one, etc.

Big Easy side trips better than hangover from Pat O'Brien's

Discover the real Louisiana history, culture and moreJames Gaffney's Side Trips from New Orleans opens the door to great same-day adventures from the Crescent City. New Orleans is far more than the French Quarter and this neat book gives reason to visit the city for four or five days so to discover the bayou country, the culture, people and history an easy drive from the city. To me, this book is a 'must' when considering a visit to the Big Easy, and a fine reason to stay longer to discover far more. Leonard J. Hansen, Journalist, Travel Writer and Author
