November 21, 2009: One of the best cruise books I have read. I heartily recommend it. For cruise information it is a MUST BUY.
It is written in two sections.The book goes into detail about the different cruise lines, provides detailed examples. There is a discussion about the various classes of ships. The book pretty closely matches my experience with the ships I've been on, so I assume they are equally accurate about the ships I have not yet sailed.The next section is a description of the common ports. Also reviewed are cruise excursions available.A very good read. Well written.This book is best for general cruise advice because of the discussions about all of the ship,s, cruise lines, and ports. A good resource for someone deciding which cruise to take.It is less than perfect for someone who has already selected a ship and itinerary. The information provided lacks that specific level of detail.
