(Editor)
Whether you're shopping
for an island or have already decided where to go, you'll get a serious
amount of information in this brick-sized guide. Especially helpful for
the undecided is a new section containing more than 30 pages of color photos--like
a miniature coffee-table book--so a browser intrigued by a mountain view,
a cricket match, or a carnival street scene can choose an island by sight.
Each chapter opens with a small story or anecdote, which can be equally
compelling. Once you zero in on an island, there are frank, fact-filled
sections on hotels, restaurants, sites, an "A to Z" of practicalities (what
to wear to dinner in St. Barts), and fun facts--like the antique trading
beads that wash up on beaches in St. Eustatius. Did we mention the maps?
Each island has one, with hotels clearly marked (very useful for plotting
distances between airport, town, or the best beach). In the back there's
a full-color, pull-out Rand McNally map of a lifetime's worth of island
idylls. --Cynthia Penney
