 Hawaii; The Big Island November 28, 2009
Carl W. Swanson (Trenton, Me.)
This book is a great reference tool and one I would completely
recommend. Great photos paint an authentic picture of each area reviewed. It is a definite KEEPER!
Gorgeous photographs and the best description of Puna ever! June 27, 2009

This book absolutely touched my heart and soul. I was especially thrilled to read the information about Puna. I especially loved that the authors visited the Big Island and took the time to include specific details and information. I feel this book is a "must read" for anyone planning a visit to the Big Island of Hawai'i. I believe the writing to be above and beyone the average vacation guide. Mahalo!!!
I had a great trip thanks to this book! June 4, 2009

I used this book on my recent trip to the Big Island and really loved it. Liked the section which talks about : Best hike, best snorkeling spot etc. It was fun to read about the history of places we were visiting. Also, the book is very colorful with awesome photographs.
Great guide March 26, 2009

used this for a recent vacation and found it to be invaluable. People don't realize that part of the big island is very remote where you may not get a signal to look stuff up with your electronic devices. That's when a well written guide comes in real handy!
Hawaii are you not buying this? March 12, 2009

The big island is our favorite of the Hawaiian Islands, and mainly because we had this book that steered us off the beaten path. What an amazing book for an amazing place. I'll never Hawaii again without it. Excellent reviews for cheap lodging (like the great hostel we stayed at in Hilo, or the dive motel with a great location we stayed at in Ka Lae, or the cute B&B at Volcanoes NP) and great recommendations for off-the-beaten-path stuff to do. Sometimes there were no other tourists in sight... definitely recommended!!
