Product Description
The first edition of this book, Adventure Guide to the Leeward Islands, won second place in the Best Book category of SATW's Central States Chapter. Each of the islands in this chain - Anguilla, St. Martin/Sint Maarten, Antigua, Barbuda, St. Kitts & Nevis - has its own history, culture and ecology, offering a cultural melange for those on an island-hopping vacation. Rainforest, beaches, wetlands, mangrove swamps and offshore shoals afford an unlimited variety of places in which to create your own adventure vacation. The Adventure Guide to the Leeward Islands is THE ultimate resource if you�re heading for some fun in the sun. Covering all the usual sites and attractions featured in other guidebooks, including historical forts, plantations and in-town places of interest, this Adventure Guide also leads you away from the tourist traps and into the heart of the island to discover hidden waterfalls, pure mountain streams and secret trails. In addition, you�ll find an entire run-down on where to stay and eat, from five-star resorts to family-run B&Bs and from haute cuisine to roadside stands selling the best BBQ chicken on the island. Focusing on outdoor activities, the authors recommend local tour operators and adventure outfitters, with contact names and numbers. Maps and photos.

 Adventure Guide to Anguilla, Antigua, St. Barts, St. Kitts, January 29, 2002

I am sorry but this was worthless. All the information in this book is on the internet. This book brings no value to a traveler going to any of these locations.
Buy Frommers or Fodors instead March 8, 2003

I was very disappointed with this guide book. I've bought a lot of guidebooks and have never seen one as general as this one. The information contained in Fodors or Frommers big Carribean books give better coverage to St. Kitts which is what I was interested in learning about.
Search the web instead January 13, 2003

I read the review that said this book was worthless and chose to ignore it - mistake! You can definitely find all of this information, plus a whole lot more, via the few websites and message boards about Anguilla. Buy a book to read on your trip instead!

I have found this book to be an informative helpful guide about some of the Carribean islands which little seems to be written.It is particularly useful for someone, like myself, who is ready to explore the Carribean beyond their own favorite island, in my case - St. John. I am finding it to be a great resource tool. A minor fault - I wish it had more colored pictures.

Dec 2006 - Just finished 7 days on nearly all islands
in this book. Maps and general info. ok.
Other info out-of-date.
Saw a 2007 travel book just released (Frommers?).
Summary, get a more current and up-to-date guide for
the Lesser Antilles.
Lesser Antilles is a great place to visit. You want
to do fancy - it is very expensive.
Otherwise, did not find costs outrageous.
