Von der hinteren Coverseite

Too much work? Too much worry? Need a change of scene? Get out of town! Twenty-seven quick and convenient minivacations take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city: Marvel at a 145-foot waterfall found more than 1,000 feet underground; see the world's largest exhibit of freshwater life; and visit the glamorous Beaux Arts-style terminal station in the Chattanooga, Tennessee escape. Sample fried green tomatoes; experience rugged Georgia farm life circa 1840; and visit the only building in Macon actually struck during a Union attack-the cannonball remains in the home's central hall to this day-in the Macon/Juliette, Georgia escape. Experience the rich musical history of a city that produced Nat King Cole and Big Mama Thornton; walk in the footsteps of Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders; and take in a world-class performance at the only American theater invited to fly the flag of England's Royal Shakespeare Company in the Tuskegee to Selma, Alabama escape.
