DESCRIPTION: As photographer Rick Rhodes images convey, Charleston s ancient moss-draped trees, wonderful mix of historic architectural variety, and melting pot of cultural influences retain her old-world charm. It s a bustling city with a laid-back attitude, where cars and horse-drawn carriages share the narrow, oak-lined roads. Charlestonians have worked hard to preserve the city s historic homes, parks, beaches and Lowcountry marshes. We invite you to flip leisurely through the pages of this book and kayak or boat the area s rivers and salt marshes, explore historic plantations, stroll through the Charleston Farmer s Market, or dine on Shem Creek at sunset; delight in the beauty and history that Charleston and the surrounding Lowcountry has to offer. |

Moon Charleston and the South Carolina Lowcountry is a 150-page compact guide covering the hospitable city of Charleston, and Beaufort and the Lowcountry including Hilton Head Island. Author Jim Morekis offers seasoned advice on what sights are must-sees, and he includes maps with sightseeing highlights so that planning your time is easy. This lightweight guide is packed with recommendations on sights, entertainment, shopping, recreation, accommodations, food, and transportation. Helpful maps make navigating the "Holy City" of Charleston and the Lowcountry uncomplicated.
Moon Spotlight guides are affordably-priced, lightweight guides covering a smaller geographic region than Moon Handbooks or Outdoors guidebook series. The travel content in a Spotlight guide is pulled directly from individual chapters of larger Handbooks or Outdoors titles, with no introductory information (such as When to Go or Planning Your Trip), and no indexes. The result is compact guides to popular destinations that provide travelers with what they need to explore a specific locale in depth with fewer pages of very focused information.
