Tour Books March 8, 2008 My wife and I are preparing for a cruise to Alaska in August. We wanted to research the ports we will be visiting on the cruise. The books we ordered have been a great help. We received them promptly and they are all in great shape. I recommend these types of books for anyone planning a vacation.
Excellent map January 27, 2008 I thought this was an excellent map of the inside passage. Because it is a six foot fold out map it shows the details of the little passes and islands you don't normally get in guidebooks and complemented the book I bought, Alaska By Cruise Ship. What do you for ten bucks nowadays anyway?
Exactly as expected March 23, 2006 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I was surprised at some of the other reviewers who expected this to be a book. It is a 6-foot long by 12-inch fold out map of the inside passage from Glacier Bay to Seattle. It does have some basic facts and information on the reverse side as well as basic road maps of most of the towns along the passage. I'm looking forward to tracking my entire cruise route on this relatively detailed map. If you're looking for more detail, I think you'd have to get a topo or a nautical map.
elementary disappointment January 8, 2006 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
when i read the description in amazon on this "book", i thought it would make a pragmatic addition to my small library on the inside passage, its history and peoples. this is nothing more than a non-detailed not-to-scale map with information printed on the back which anyone who has attended high school would know. this is not a book. at $2.00 i would not have written a negative review (my first), at $3.00 i would have felt cheated, at $10.36 i feel tricked and outraged.
Just maps very little narrative September 9, 2005 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
When I received this item, I thought they had forgotten to send me the book and had only enclosed the maps. They sent it to me again and then I realised that this flat map was the whole thing. Very dissapointed. Not much info for the price.
