Book excerpt: Hundreds of thousands of visitors flock every year to Arlington for its famous cemetery, the Pentagon, and several memorials, including Iwo Jima and Air Force. But there’s much more to this vibrant city across the Potomac from Washington, DC. With 100 Things to Do in Arlington Before You Die, residents and visitors alike can delve beyond the obvious to discover a multilayered city devoted to dining, history, the arts, sports, shopping, and just plain relaxing. Specialized itineraries and seasonal activities help make the most of it all. Dive into Arlington’s history, including a farmhouse dating back to George Washington’s time (it’s possible he visited), a surprising collection of the nation’s first federal monuments, and the distressing ruins of a neighborhood’s segregation wall built to keep Black Arlingtonians out. Eat well at dozens of global restaurants along a single road, a hidden crab shack, and a special date-night extravaganza overseen by a Michelin- starred chef. Explore the booming arts scene, encompassing a dazzling outdoor sculpture program, a small-but-mighty contemporary arts museum, and studios where you can make your own art. In the heart of urbanity, shady paths wander through Virginia woods filled with deer, migrating birds, and, if you’re lucky to spot one, red foxes. You’ll also get insider tips on how to experience the most famous places in new ways, including several that provide prime spots for Fourth of July fireworks viewing (ssshh—don’t tell anyone!). Arlington-based writer and editor Barbara Noe Kennedy shares 25-plus years of insider knowledge—eating at mom- and-pop restaurants, shopping at local markets, taking art classes, exploring historical sites, attending performances, running and biking the trails, and more. Detailed descriptions, tips, and practical info ensure locals and visitors alike will enjoy the best this energetic city has to offer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was called the Magic City – a bright, shiny new boomtown following the misery of the Civil War. Birmingham was teething on steel as a brash Wild West town with gambling, shootouts and famous madams. When the steel died down, banking and medical industries settled it into a sophisticated city with a famed culinary scene, a broad entertainment district, and striking natural beauty. The colorful past remains in a juke joint, quirky museums and a mining trail turning into a greenway. The city changed the country with its notorious struggle, preserved in churches, parks and the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute. The city is experiencing a new boom in the restoration of its historic downtown, craft beer scene, up and coming new chefs, and an explosion of music venues. The Magic is back. 100 Things to Do in Birmingham Before You Die is your guide to discovering that magic!
