Review

Seattle City Walks, by Laura Karlinsey, is the kind of guidebook that belongs on the shelf--or in the backpack--of not just serious visitors, but of every local fascinated with the characters of the city....History, art, architecture and atmosphere, culture and sub-culture provide the focus in calm, thankfully straightforward, un-beribboned prose. The equally calm and effective design sustains impressive research by Karlinsey and Sherri Schulz (a basic bibliography is a welcome addition). -- Seattle Times, May 19, 1999

4.0 out of 5 stars a wonderful guide to explore seattle with, April 13, 2000
This review is from: Seattle City Walks: Exploring Seattle Neighborhoods on Foot (Paperback)
as a recent transplant to seattle & a new dog owner, i love this book. it maps out about 10 walks to take in different neighborhoods- fremont, queen anne, the international district, etc. and lists the time each should take as well as a wealth of information. there are features on buildings you'll see, maps, suggested parking places, and more. it's much more interesting than your standard guidebook that just lists museums & stuff.

This review is from: Seattle City Walks: Exploring Seattle Neighborhoods on Foot (Paperback)
As a newcomer to Seattle, I have made good use of this book. When searching for a place to live, it really gave me a taste of each neighbourhood. The walks are fun and informative, with accurate maps, great layout, and something to interest everyone. So, if you are kean to learn the history of Seattle neighbourhoods, this book is a must.
