Informative, step by step, you actually can visualize walking the streets as explained in detail.All areas of the island were clearly covered.This guide was just what I needed to learn about the country before visiting. Posted on July 7, 2011 Rhonda Norrie says... Actually the only real current guide I was able to find to Dominica. But it was great for our recent visit to this wonderful island. It was very accurate and useful describing hikes we took to Middleham Falls, Syndicate, Boiling Lake, Cabrits, Scotts Head and covering the towns of Portsmouth and Rosseau.It would improve with an index to the businesses, hotels and restaurants.Paul has done a good job---Rik Posted on July 7, 2011 Alysia Chimenti says... This is a great book for: 1. Anyone who loves great photography 2. Anyone interested in seeing or visiting one of the most beautiful, unspoiled islands in the Caribbean and 3. Divers and snorkellers. Jon Bird shares his stunning photographs taken above and below the sea on this little-travelled jewel in the Caribbean. Having been there a few times myself, I was still amazed by the breadth of ocean wildlife shown in the book. If you can't go to Dominica yourself (an experience I highly recommend as well), check this book out to see land and sea scapes you won't find anywhere else in the Caribbean. Posted on July 8, 2011 Perry Jungels says... Jonathan Bird's book is an absolute must have for the traveler to Dominica.It is comprehensive and absolutely factual.Besides that the pictures of this Paradise are beautiful.If your thinking about travel to Dominica, pick up this book and it will help you plan your visit.If you have already been there, get this book for the pictures and memories it will forever rekindle. Posted on July 8, 2011 Mozelle Fladger says... I thought this book was fantastic. It is concise, well illustrated, and accurate. Anyone buying this book will have to travel to the island to see the wonderful sites for themselves. I think this is the best single photographic guide to Dominica. MG Posted on July 9, 2011 Bree Latam says... Excellent maps and descriptions of hikes, places to explore and snorkel/dive sites. Restaurants, places to stay and some history of the island make this a very thorough guidebook. Posted on July 9, 2011 Shirl Lissy says... Paul deserves a chair on the board of directors at each and every Guide publishing company. his book is THAT good. I just arrived in Dominica and I always refers to his book when I'm visiting the island. Everything is there with all the needed information. The truth is, native Domincans you'll meet on your journeys keep praising Paul, saying he deserves a Dominican medal for his extensive and amazing work. Get that book to visit Dominca, you won't need any other one. Posted on July 9, 2011 Cierra Lebeau says... I'm on my way to Dominica as I write. Jonathan Bird's book arrived in my hands too late to influence my plans, but it wouldn't have changed much. The pictures are lovely, especially the under-water shots, but the text is less than meager. This is a photo album, not in any way a guide to Dominica either for a tourist or for an aesthetic traveler. I "humbly" expect to take photos on land that will match Mr. Bird's technically, and will have more meaning in the form of resonance with my memories of the actual places. The under-water pictures are beyond my skill, and earn the four stars I'm giving this book. Posted on July 9, 2011 Darrel Bancroft says... This photography book starts to do justice to what is one of the most beautiful places on earth.I can return to Dominica whenever I want by viewing the photos. Posted on July 13, 2011 Carmon Valdez says... Having traveled extensively in the Caribbean over the years and invested heavily in Guide Books Mr Crasks book and the island of Dominica came as unexpected and hugely pleasant surprises. The book is stuffed with all the information needed and quickly gets across that the island is different from the rest of the other dirty, expensive run of the mill islands. We hiked on the island and Mr Crask correctly points out the challenges. He rates the hikes and gives accurate and necessary advice about the need for guides and the difficulty of some of the hikes. I am British. Mr Crask is British.I think, perhaps, that is an advantage I have over American readers. He expresses his likes and dislikes with a British subtlety that is not always obvious, but his opinions came across loud and clear to me. And they were good opinions! Let's hope Mr Crask extends his efforts to some of the other islands Posted on July 16, 2011 Leave a Comment |
