Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

For Hawaii-bound visitors seeking natural beauty, historical sites, and the culture that supports environmental activities, botanical gardens, and special nature programs. Following an introduction to the creation of the islands, Zurick discusses alternative energy, aquaculture, hiking, camping, preserves, parks, recycling, water sports, and environmental education. Island by island, he reviews natural attractions, activities, and alternative lodgings. Useful, concise, and well written, this will interest campers, younger, budget-constrained visitors, naturalists, and readers of John Culliney's natural history, Islands in a Far Sea ( LJ 11/15/88). Libraries that have Ray Reigert's Hidden Hawaii (And-or Pr., 1982) or Sierra Club's Park Guide to Hawaii (1984) may not need this. Libraries needing a more current book in this category or multiple guides to Hawaii should consider.
