Heritage Things To Do In Dallas: Strategic Daily Itineraries, Local Etiquette, and Essential Insights (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798186519157)

IMAGINE EVERYTHING THERE IS TO DO IN DALLAS
Imagine standing on the grassy knoll at Dealey Plaza as the weight of a single moment in American history settles over you, then driving twenty minutes to the largest urban arts district in the United States, then ending the night in Deep Ellum where street art covers every wall and live music spills from every door on a street that never quiets.

WHAT THIS GUIDE PUTS IN YOUR HANDS
1. The Sixth Floor Museum & the JFK History Trail
The Sixth Floor Museum archive, Dealey Plaza on foot, the grassy knoll and its markers, Philip Johnson's JFK Memorial cenotaph, and the conspiracy tour covering every perspective still debated six decades later.
