They are chock full of the best attractions, historical factoids and useful information for your visit to The Most Beautiful City in North America.  If you enjoy Savannah's rich history, famous figures, and elaborate architecture, then be sure to get our bestselling SAVANNAH HISTORIC DISTRICT ILLUSTRATED MAP. Do you like ghost stories, paranormal activity, and strange tales of the macabre? Then you'll love our HAUNTED SAVANNAH ILLUSTRATED MAP - a must-have when touring America's Most Haunted City. And if you're planning a visit to the historic outdoor museum of Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah, do not enter without our BONAVENTURE CEMETERY ILLUSTRATED MAP, or you're guaranteed to get lost.  Note on compass: NORTH is on the bottom of the Savannah Historic and Haunted maps because of the historical significance of the riverfront area. This area is what draws over 13 million visitors each year and what has turned the city around economically since the late 1970s. Illustrative maps of other cities move compass directions when there is a specific tourism area that needs to be marketed to. There would be no Savannah Historic District if not for those businesses along the river. It's where her riches came from dating back to the early 1700s. A vast majority of the incredible 19th century birds-eye-view maps of Savannah also show her in this non-traditional, north on bottom, format. Once you get your orientation adjusted, this map is all you'll need for wayfinding.  Note on DOT routes: The free DOT shuttle and bus routes on the back of the Savannah Historic and Haunted maps were changed by the city after the maps were printed. Please visit connectonthedot.com for the latest routes. Once our map inventory is depleted, we will update the printings with the new routes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49863297466641,"sku":"CIN0985653205G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51391256559889,"sku":"NGR9780985653200","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0985653205.jpg?v=1772706855"},{"product_id":"skull-of-disguises-book-michael-karpovage-9780985653262","title":"Skull of Disguises","description":"When a valuable Nazi S Skull Head ring - one of the most sought-after World War I collectables - is mistakenly left behind at his new Savannah business, Freemason military historian Jake Tununda sets out to Sapelo Island, Georgia to find its owner. He meets Doctor Blackbeard - the Hoodoo root doctor, Buffalo Soldier, Prince Hall Mason, and legendary Saltwater Geechee moonshine king. Jake's good intentions soon backfire as he's thrust into a deadly domestic situation involving an abusive guardian and the pilfering of sacred land belonging to slave descendants. His moral compass is sent spinning after he finds out the skull ring is evidence of a dark military program kept secret since the final days of the war: Operation Overcast and the human smuggling of Nazis back to America. From author Michael Karpovage comes another brilliantly-plotted and meticulously-researched novel meshing historical fact with an adventurous treasure hunt. Skull of Disguises is centered around a mysterious 1945 German U-boat buried deep in the maritime forest of a remote Georgia barrier island. Coupled with a manhunt for the ruthless master thief Phoenix and a showdown with brutal Sinaloa cartel drug smugglers, Jake must overcome several deadly confrontations before he and his team can make the perilous trek to find the German U-boat.
