Customer Reviews

Great idea book

Whether exploring, taking pictures, or for exercise this is a good book for idea's of where to go and check out Seattle.

Excellent, but in need of an update

This is the perfect guide for exploring the city on foot, although Seattle has changed since the book was written 5 years ago. The maps are clear, the directions precise, the information interesting, the organization flawless. There were no major problems even when places had changed (an Italian restaurant en route which was now Chinese...), but an update would be nice. Highly recommended.

walking seattle

If you're new to the city or even a longtimer who always wanted to explore the colorful districts of this town on the Sound, Walking Seattle by John Owen is your best guide by leaps and bounds. you won't just read about the sights and sounds of Seattle, but also its origins and beginnings, from the first day of commerce at the Pike Place Market. Most of the city's great walks are covered quite well--the Market, Ballard, the Arboretum, Alki, Diswcovery Park, the Locks. Fremont is the perfect foil for Owen's quirky brand of humor. All in all, Owen won't lead you off course
