The newest and best of the vade mecums... Mr. Shivers lays out about a dozen tours, stretching from Patterson Park to Federal Hill to Bolton Hill... Whoever reads this guide and follows these routes will know a lot more about downtown than most natives do. Baltimore Sun Wander where pianist Eubie Blake pounded out ragtime, and pub crawl where filmmaker John Waters found inspiration. It's history, alive and vibrant, readable even for those whose shoes may never see a Baltimore street. Baltimore Magazine
