Good news, there is! Take this small-group walking tour and enjoy a journalist's inside perspective on the people, places and events depicted in John Berendt's Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. What locals call "The Book" is a riveting non-fiction read that captures the character of downtown Savannah in the 1980s, a place where Old South aristocracy and numerous free spirits combined to create a unique place where, in the words of Berendt, "Every nuance and quirk of personality achieved greater brilliance, than would have been possible anywhere else in the world." Learn more about Jim Williams, The Lady Chablis, Joe Odom, Danny Hansford, the Hamilton-Turner House, Minerva, Clary's, Mercer Williams House, and all the other people and places that make Midnight a classic.
