“Super
additional information directed to the needs of international travelers, senior
travelers, handicapped, or very young travelers helps set this series apart from
the many travel guides that now fill the shelves.”
--Review of Texas Books
For the businessman, newcomer, or
visitor,
A Marmac Guide to Houston and Galveston
provides information on population, services, recreation, accomodations,
restaurants, and main attractions.
Comprehensive information in an
easy-to-use format on the area’s past, transportation, lodging, dining,
nightlife, entertainment, shopping, sights, and more highlight this volume.
While Houston holds tight to its traditions, economic development and cultural
diversity are rapidly molding it into the international city of the twenty-first
century. And this newly updated edition is the perfect guide with which to
explore it.
The list of attractions that
includes the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, Space Center Houston, the Astrodome,
Six Flags AstroWorld, the Port of Houston, and the Downtown Pedestrian Tunnel
System is essential for anyone seeking something new and fun to do.
