Very helpful, accurate and informative, May 28, 1998

This review is from: British Columbia Handbook: Including Vancouver, Victoria, and the Canadian Rockies (Moon British Columbia) (Paperback)
The book was a birthday present to me two months before a trip to Vancouver to visit my daughter. The Vancouver downtown map showed me the nearest hotel to her address and the prices quoted for hotels were a good guide. She has been in Canada for eight months, but did not know of a restaurant (Roosters Quarters) recommended in Denman Street which is 10 minutes walk away. This book saved me money, was a pleasure to read, and made the many other guides I looked at in the library totally redundant.

This review is from: British Columbia Handbook: Including Vancouver, Victoria, and the Canadian Rockies (Moon British Columbia) (Paperback)
There is a percpetion out there that BC consists of Vancouver, Victoria and some other bits. This is the book about the "other bits."
I took a copy with me on a recent road trip from Prince Rupert to Vancouver, and it more than paid me back with useful information (not the least of which was the names of towns; apparently BC Highways doesn't believe in posting signs telling you where you are). Lots of history, which is always great, besides the usual road info. Take it, 'cause without it, you'll soon be on that unique BC mountain highway feature, the Runaway Lane!
