Daydreams of the Inside Passage

This is a tremendously informative book, and really stimulated my desire to take a cruise on the Inside Passage to Alaska. It's loaded with great photos and sidebars with great local information. It's been updated in a newer edition, but I'm greatly satisfied with this one.

Don't leave home without it!

Very well prepared, documented, depicted and written book on the inside passage it's towns, histories, culture, people, local establishments, attractions and a lot more. You'll be glad you bought it.

review

The author describes numerous useful aspects of the cultural and historical attractions of areas along the Inside Passage. My only complaint is that I would like to see more maps with greater detail.
