About the Author

Hailing from Savannah, Jim Morekis has an innate appreciation for the quirky side of the South. He takes frequent breaks from his longtime job as a Savannah alt-weekly newspaper editor to travel throughout the Southeast, with an eye for observation, an admiration for the drama of history, and a taste for barbecue. He has authored several Moon guidebooks. Despite having extensive experience with regional hotels and B&Bs, he still insists camping at state parks is the best way to go.
