2 comments about Cascadia: A Tale of Two Cities Seattle and Vancouver, B.C..

1. Purchasing a first class photographer's books, when well printed, is a unique opportunity to own fine art at bargain prices and makes an outstanding gift. Morton Beebe's Cascadia is an opportunity to acquire world class photography and an outstanding visual essay on one of the most dynamic areas in North America at an incredibly reasonable price. The first class Japanese printing contracted by Harry Abrams illustrates some of Mr. Beebe's fine pieces with an exceptionally high quality. Among the photographs which are highlights of the book include a stunning skyline of view of Seattle at sunset, an exceptional graphic image of the Washington Mutual Tower, unique photographs of Orca whales, an beautiful view of Echo Bay in British Columbia, portraits of the logs floating outside of a Washington mill in winter waiting to be cut up with seagulls overhead and on the logs and numerous other exceptional photographs. If you have a friend or member of your family who's interested in the Pacific Northwest, Cascadia is an excellent candidate gift.



2. Over 200 beautiful color photographs.. stunning. Cloth Emerald green cover is beautiful, too.

   A look at the pacific NW from unusual angles.

2 comments about A Dreamspeaker Cruising Guide: Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island Sooke to Nanaimo.

1. After cruising and teaching for 10 years in this area, the arrival of this terrific cruising guide is welcome. Great graphic presentation of harbor diagrams, and every possible anchorage.

   Add a "Cruising Guide to Puget Sound" for the US San Juan Islands and Puget Sound, and a BBA Chart Kit, and you are set!




2. With incredibly detailed, hand drawn sketches of each anchorage, the Dreamspeaker's Guide is helpful and beautiful. Unlike other guides I've seen, this guide details each harbor/anchorage with what to look for and what to look out for. It gives you the confidence of having talked to someone who has been there, and yet allows you to enjoy the excitement of your first visit. The artwork of Lawrence Yeadon-Jones is outstanding making this as pleasureable to look at as it is informative. I strongly recommend this book for anyone cruising the Gulf Islands or dreaming of doing so.
