Synopses & Reviews
One of the few U.S. cities that has been under three flags, New Orleans' mixed colonial heritage is the source of much of its charm and mystique. The Insiders' Guide to New Orleans takes you beyond Mardi Gras, from the voodoo museums to the farmers markets, from the Superdome to the Preservation Jazz Hall, and to all the little shops and restaurants hidden on the sides streets in between. If you plan to settle in this large U.S. port city, the information in the Real Estate, Healthcare, and Media chapters will be extraordinarily helpful. However, both visitors and relocators alike will appreciate the Restaurants chapter and food glossary and the History chapter with a guide to local lingo as they set out to discover the Big Easy.
