These may most conveniently be visited in the order given. The Fort is the most important, and as much time should be reserved for that as for all the others combined. Then there are the seawall, the barracks and the military cemetery, the narrow streets - such as have not lost their picturesqueness - and numerous excursions by land and water to various points named elsewhere.

Excerpt from The Standard Guide to St. Augustine and Fort Marion: Practical Information for Tourists, Descriptions of All Points of Interests; And an Historical Summary, With Maps and Plans

Giving practical information and such descriptions as, it is hoped, may enable one to intelligently see the town, The Standard Guide is intended to add to the tourist's convenience and pleasure here. It does not purport to be a history. It is a guide book to the St. Augustine of the present.

The illustrations, drawn by Mr. Roger Davis, are from his own sketches, made expressly for this work. Their artistic excellence needs no words here. It is a pleasure to add that they have also the merit of rare fidelity to the subjects depicted. They show picturesque St. Augustine - but it is the St. Augustine of actual existence, not a creation of artist's fancy.

If this little book be not cast aside, its prose and pictures may in the future prove pleasant reminders of a visit to St. Augustine.
