ADVENTURE GUIDE TO NAPLES, SORRENTO, AMALFI COAST BY MARINA CARTER is another of Hunter Publishing Company's excellent travel guides. This one has a fascinating introduction which gives not only the history, but also breaks down and explains the art and architecture into specific periods of history, which gives you a thorough appreciation for what you will see and experience on your trip. There is a section of where to go, what to see, places to eat and shop, and sporting activities and entertainment in each area, including phone numbers and websites to contact for each. The book explores Naples with its history and art, then the 60 mile Sorrento Peninsula as a base for exploring other areas and famous for luring sirens to the treacherous ... Read More:

I had hoped to find a new guidebook for the Island of Hawaii. Sadly, this was not it. The book may be OK as an overview for a first trip to the island (week or less) but it is too superficial to be of enduring use.

Of the very few travel guide options for Nicaragua this is the least informative. The font size in this book is about 13 point (think large print for the farsighted). If it had been printed using a smaller font size, similar to the other travel guides, it would be a pamphlet. I was extremely disappointed in the regurgitation of the usual suspects. There is nothing new in this guide, which is unfortunate because Nicaragua is an ever changing beauty. On the plus side, its photography usage is impressive.

The information in this book is good but the organization is problematic when you are on the go. Having to look up cities by region was confusing to me. It is also a bit big for carrying around.

.Adventure Guide Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska (Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska) (Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska)
City Travel Guides > Books > Adventure Guides

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.
