This in-depth guide takes a thorough look at a region popular with many types of visitors -- commercial Atlanta, colonial Charleston, the college town of Athens & the Smokey Mountains. With more budget & off-the-beaten-track sights than the competition, it offers the best scenic drives in each state for travelers by car, as well as a tantalizing map of offshore sunken treasure. There's also a special section on the area's music tradition, including folk, soul, country, bluegrass & rock.
