Well Researched
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I bought this book for my parents who are boaters and natives of Whidbey Island. They love it. It is incredibly well researched and very well organized. Excellent book for anyone fascinated with transportation on Puget Sound. The best part is that it tells you what happened to the ferries you remember from the past with lots of photos of derelict vessels.
GREAT Book!
