Summary: Afoot & Afloat: an ambitious undertaking
Comment: This book is well organized with numerous non-nautical maps and helpful tables. The writing style is concise and easily readible. It is somewhat of an overview publication in that it does not contain the detail frequently provided in a cruising guide nor does it include very much content which is not oriented to the coastlines of the islands. As priced it certainly provides much more in value than one would expect.

If your interest is in using this as a cruising guide, you can expect some frustration by the obvious omissions of helpful information. An example would be the reference to Brentwood Bay where it is noted that there are three marinas which provide guest moorings, but they are neither identified in the content or by name on any maps. Thus, a sailor seeking an overnight mooring has no identification for calling the harbormaster.

The authors have not suggested any restaurants or lodging accomodations except for a few places. They have, however, provided a great deal of information about the parks and the facilities available in the parks for the area covered and have likewise included comprehensive information on the use of the ferry systems for gaining access to the islands.

In summary this publication covers a great deal of worthwhile and helpful information for anyone interested in visiting or considering a visit to the Gulf Islands.
