Synopsis

Visit odd little towns with odd little names like So-So, Hot Coffee, and Why Not; experience the sometimes harsh realities of life in the delta and the carefree frivolity of life on the beach; and develop an appreciation for kudzu and Spanish moss--all under the guidance of an award-winning travel writer.

From the Back Cover

Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and discover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don't offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you'd want to see--if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you'll say over and over again: "I didn't know that!"
Whether you're a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Mississippi Off the Beaten Path show you the Magnolia State you never knew existed. Journey to the land of talking frogs and fashion-conscious pigs at the Birthplace of the Frog, a museum honoring Mississippi native and Muppets-creator Jim Henson; explore the ceremonial Choctaw Indian mounds and sacred cave at the Nanih Waiya Historic Site; or visit lions, tigers, panthers, and other exotic animals at the Collins Exotic Animal Orphanage. So if you've "been there, done that" one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
