1000 Places to See in the USA and Canada Before You Die |

SAVANNAH, GA.- Don’t miss Savannah – featuring the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Owens-Thomas and Davenport Houses Savannah , GA and a few of her most-beloved attractions are listed in the new book “1000 Places to See in the USA and Canada Before You Die.”
This is a follow up to author Patricia Schultz’ “1000 Places to See Before You Die,” which is one of the bestselling travel books ever published, with over 2.4 million copies in print. The original publication has spent 162 weeks (and counting) on the New York Times bestseller list and will soon be the basis for a new reality television show.
The write-up lauds Savannah and describes it as “An urban masterpiece, ( Savannah is) America ’s best walking city, a living museum.” Labeling Savannah as “ Georgia ’s Jewel,” Schultz focuses on the National Historical Landmark District’s brilliance as a whole and heavily features two of architect William Jay’s Regency style designs, the Owens-Thomas House and the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences, as well as the Davenport House. Among the District’s 2,300 significant colonial and Victorian homes and buildings, the Owens-Thomas House on Oglethorpe Square “deservedly earns more oohs and aahs than any other structure in the district,” Schultz determines. Fittingly, the Telfair Academy , a fine architectural work in itself with the distinction of being the South’s oldest public art museum, is also a highlight.
More information on both the Owens-Thomas House and the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences can be found at www.telfair.org, or 912.790.8800. Information about the Davenport House can be found at 912.236.8097 www.davenporthousemuseum.org
