Each one of the six main Hawaiian Islands is covered by the experienced authors of this always-popular guidebook to America's paradise in the Pacific.
The book consists of bold opinions, colorfully expressed, by independent, locally-based journalists who are given carte blanche by Frommer's to select what they consider to be the islands' best beaches, attractions, outfitters, restaurants, shops, nightspots and hotels.
Though they review facilities in all price ranges, they emphasize value and give the reader many tips on how to save money, in the Frommer's tradition. Extensively illustrated with four-color photographs, and containing numerous maps.
