.The Traveler's Guide to Japanese Pilgrimages (Travel)

by: Ed Readicker-Henderson

1995-05
Provides background information, history, and photos of 2 popular Buddhist pilgrimage routes in Japan, one of 33 temples (the Saigoku Kannon pilgrimage) and another of 88 temples (the Kobo Daishi pilgrimage) on the island of Shikoku. I used this book as my primary guide for my own Saigoku Kannon pilgrimage, and found the author's directions accurate and reliable! The author writes with knowledge and respect of these places. Even if you are not contemplating a religious journey, it has great info on sites not on most tourist routes. I would definitely look into any further editions/updates of this guide.

.Adventure Guide Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska (Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska) (Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska)

by: Ed Readicker-Henderson, Lynn Readicker-Henderson

January 31, 2006
This book is oriented toward people who are doing the Inside Passage by ferry rather than cruise ship. Throughout the book there is constant snottiness toward cruises.

I went by cruise ship and still found the book worth the price. If you are taking ferry boats, then this is the book to buy.

The author does grudgingly admit that cruising is economical. Yes. I got 7 nights lodging, all the gourmet food I could eat, transportation to four cities, and an excursion to Hubbard Glacier for $1000. If my companion had had a more flexible schedule, I could have done it for $700. I.e., $100/day. Pretty hard to do better than that.

.Adventure Guide to Coastal Alaska and the In Edition (Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska)

by: Lynn Readicker-Henderson, Ed Readicker-Henderson

1996-03
Out of all the travel books I purchased for my Alaska trip this one proved to be the most entertaining and useful. When I recieved this book I expected just another guide book but I couldn't stop reading - the anecdotes and suggestions were as compelling as a good novel. It felt like a nice, long letter from a friend who wanted to be sure I had a great trip. While traveling I found most of their suggestions right on the money. I tried the activities they suggested and was glad I steered clear of their warnings! It turned out to be the only guide book I brought along that I actually used regularly on the trip. One draw back is that there are very few maps of the smaller local areas and the maps that are included do not give you ... Read More:
