Donald Olson 
Frommer’s Seattle day by day 

A new addition to the best-selling Day by Day series, this is a compact but thorough introduction to the touristic highlights of the Pacific Northwest. While it primarily deals with itineraries and expert suggestions on approaching the highlights of this coastal region, it also provides specific hotel, restaurant, shopping, nightlife and sightseeing recommendations, all more than sufficient for a memorable vacation. Printed on glossy paper, with four-color maps, yet at a low price.
