A Walk in the Parks

Strolling through downtown Charleston's four major parks - White Point Garden, Marion Square, Waterfront Park and Washington Square - has just been made easier and more informative with John R. Young's guidebook. With this book, Mr. Young, a registered Charleston tour guide and docent at the Powder Magazine, enables readers to self-tour these parks with the knowledge and authority of a city tour guide. Included in each park's section are the location of the park and a brief history; a map of the monuments, numbered for ease of reference; and the details, history, and full-color picture of each monument described. The book's size, along with its waterproof cover, makes it perfect for stashing in a backpack or purse for the tourist on the go, whether you're from out of town or just down the road.
