4.0 out of 5 stars Great Trip Selection Tool, April 20, 2000
By 
This review is from: Sea Kayaking Canada's West Coast (Paperback)
As another reviewer notes, this book is a general review of the entire BC west coast. I have used it to get the flavor and identify areas for trips. Then I hit the charts and look for local contacts. I have never been disappointed in the information. Ince's recommendations are absolutely sterling. My view is that specifics like campsites and itineraries are best discovered not copied, so this book has exactly the level of detail I look for in a guide book. There are quite a few sort of goofy anecdotes, but they usually contribute to painting a picture of the area's aesthetic qualities. This is a narrative from the paddler's perspective, not a Michelin Guide. It is the best guide for remote areas of Vancouver Island that I know. I'd like to see it updated.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too general, August 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Sea Kayaking Canada's West Coast (Paperback)
Very general information but none of the desparately needed specifics. Reads like someone's vacation monologue.
