From the author's Preface: "The material in the following pages has been collected through many years of acquaintance with the South, and through a special series of visits undertaken last winter with this work in mind. I have tried to give the things one notices and talks about to his friends. The book is not, primarily, a guide-book, or a hotel directory, but it contains such information of this character as I have found of value to myself."

Condition:
Light soiling to the covers and spine. The red lettering on the spine has faded a bit. Sharp cover corners. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Occasional light foxing to the pages.
