Take one Philadelphia girl and transplant her to the vast unknown nether regions known affectionately as "Down South" - welcome to Hotlanta and you my dear reader, have discovered the heart of Georgia, Atlanta. My purchase of this book stemmed from a mix of fear that I would lose my beloved City Life (and worse, lack of direction). Besides in a city where every street is Peachtree and you finally get past the stereotype that everything is sweet tea, country fried fried, and bless your heart - this amazing travel guide becomes the PERFECT antidote for the new transplant to find obscure bookstores, shops, coffeehouses and greenspace in a pretty awesome new city. I keep it in the car for the days when I do venture out and explore. Funny, I'm actually becoming more familiar than some of the natives.

Really helpful, GREAT maps and to-the-point descriptions of the countless neighborhoods in Hotlanta. Succinct, sometimes to the point of ridiculousness, but helpful none the less descriptions of restaurants, activities, etc. An index would be nice..
