Well Researched

I bought this book for my parents who are boaters and natives of Whidbey Island. They love it. It is incredibly well researched and very well organized. Excellent book for anyone fascinated with transportation on Puget Sound. The best part is that it tells you what happened to the ferries you remember from the past with lots of photos of derelict vessels.

GREAT Book!

The pictures are amazing. I love this book. Keep it on my boat, and people love to look through it.

A 'Must Have' for area armchair or serious historians

I have no problems with this work; a few of us 'older generation' can remem seeing or perhaps riding on these ferries 'in our youth', haha. this is a terrific book that is an important addition to the collection of any historian of P.S. / PNW past.
