Waste of money -
| Customer Rating: | Very disappointed with this one. Bought a number of travel books on Amazon on Alaska travel and thought this would be good but it's not, in my opinion. Lovely glossy pages and skips along at a such a pace that more research is needed on each location described to get an understanding of trip planning. One could easliy be forgiven for forming the opinion that the creators grabbed a copy of the Milepost and made a book. Also bought The Unofficial Guide to Adventure Travel in Alaska (Unofficial Guides)" and "Traveler's Guide to Alaskan Camping: Alaska and Yukon Camping with RV or Tent (Traveler's Guide series)" along with The 2008 MILEPOST. These three gave me what I wanted, in much more detail. Can I return the book for a refund plus int shipping cost please?

Alaska Highway
| Customer Rating: | | I am planning our first trip to Alaska. Initially I borrowed this book from our Parish library. I found it to be so informative that I decided to purchase the book for future reference. |
Indispensable DRIVING Guide to the Highway
| Customer Rating: | | Not sure why the last reviewer bought a driving guide instead of a hiking guide, but I found this book to be incredibly helpful and entertaining. It contained the right balance of text with history and don't-miss places to visit for each community, along with listings of restaurants and places to stay. She tell you the miles (and kilometers) between major towns and includes lots of great pictures. Highly recommended for preparing for the trip, and a great resource once you're on the road. |
Of no value to me
| Customer Rating: | | I will be driving to Alaska this summer with my dog and I wanted guidance on local parks on the way where we could take breaks and go hiking. I purchased the book since it claims to provide information about hiking trails. No such thing; I found nothing of any value to me and returned it. In fact, if you delete the pictures and the lists of motels and restaurants... there would be little left to read. |
