Frommer's Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands and San Juan Islands

A full-time writer who globe-trots and scribes for a living, Chris McBeath makes her home in these islands of the Pacific Northwest. Because she has worked in so many facets of the tourism industry, from chambermaid to management, aboard cruise ships and in topranked hotels, she has an insider's eye for what makes a great travel experience. Chris tweets, blogs, and maintains a travel website (www.greatestgetaways.com) on her various travels. Although she contributes to publications worldwide, this book represents a part of the world that is closest to her heart.
