Negative Positive
Title: Inaccurate, poorly organized.
Review: We just returned from Dominica (October 2005), having foolishly taken this book along as our sole guide. Difficult to believe the author has visited the island, with sketchy information about much of it. Examples: Douglas Bay is described as having a shady beach, which is almost nonexistent, with half a dozen palms centered on a rocky coastal bay more than a mile long. Chaudiere pool, one of the most beautiful places on the island, is not mentioned.Poor organization is made worse by a weak index. The topics "waterfalls" and "rivers" do not appear, and the term "Carib tribes" is out of alphabetical order, for example.Pleasant reading for the flavor of the island, but don't take it with you for real exploration of this beautiful gem.
