Imagine having a hip, in-the-know friend in every city you wanted to visit. And imagine that he's excited when you say “hey, I'm going to be in town for a few days; anything I shouldn't miss?” So excited, in fact, that he riffs for 145 entire pages about secret spots, local intel, insider trivia, and hot tips that you'd never have known otherwise. Anyway, that's kind of what a Wildsam Field Guide feels like. Their New Orleans edition includes: Iconic Restaurants for New Orleans' Classics; Jazz Greats, By Instrument; A Comprehensive List of Mardi Gras Indian Tribes; A Short Story From William Faulkner; A Bartender-Approved Cocktail Crawl; Famous Cookbooks of the Twentieth Century; A Glossary of Only In-NOLA Architecture; Letters From Louis Armstrong And Tennessee Williams; A Perfect Twenty-Hour Hour Itinerary; and One Writer's Tale Of Giving Birth During Katrina.
