The Double Eagle Guide to 1,000 Great!Western Recreation Destinations: Western Recreation Destinations : West Coast : Washington, Oregon, California (Double Eagle Guide) - Book Reviews,
by Elizabeth Preston, Thomas Preston
The Double Eagle Guide to 1,000 Great!Western Recreation Destinations: Western Recreation Destinations, Vol. 1 FROM THE CRITICS Library Journal The 4000 places to visit in these four volumes have been selected by people who obviously enjoy their work. Thomas and Elizabeth Preston seem to have been bitten by the wanderlust bug. Their descriptions of parks, forests, and seashores are written with ordinary people in mind: visitors are told whether there are flush toilets available, where to camp for the best shade, what the parking situation is like, and where to shop for grub. Though their style is breezy, it's detailed enough for even the fussiest trip planners. At the back of each book are detailed state maps showing locations of each site, as well as information on each state's fees and reservation policies. All public libraries should consider purchasing a set for reference and one for circulation; this is definitely going to be a well-used item.Joseph L. Carlson, Vandenberg Air Force Base Lib., Lompoc, Cal.
