A Marmac Guide to Dallas

"The Lord must have created Dallas on Sunday when he was resting because there's no mountains, no lakes, no water, just a flat piece of land with no reason for being."
-Stanley Marcus, Neiman-Marcus

What began "with no reason for being" has, in slightly more than 150 years, grown into the quintessential all-American city, affectionately and proudly referred to simply as Big D. Here is a completely updated guide to Dallas that is as big as the city itself.

Listed among Dallas's varied sites and events are

Arthur's, which serves up a "swooningly wonderful" tenderloin fillet, according to D Magazine

Hotel ZaZa, a unique and exotic boutique hotel named one of the Best New Business Hotels of 2002 by www.Forbes.com

The Conspiracy Museum, located across the street from the John F. Kennedy Memorial, one block away from his assassination site

Additional comprehensive listings of hotels, restaurants, attractions, and neighborhoods will appeal to those with a zest for the best, while histories, anecdotes, and trivia tidbits will educate as well as entertain.

Truly with something for every tourist, business traveler, and new resident, A Marmac Guide to Dallas will prove just what the city's more than one million residents and 12 million annual visitors have known all along-that Big D definitely has a reason for being.
