Product Description

Considered Anchorage's "backyard playground" and mecca for fishing fanatics, the Kenai Peninsula is a magnificent place, a microcosm of the best of what Alaska has to offer. Mountain peaks and blue glaciers, rushing rivers and aquamarine lakes, coastal islands and seaside towns-yes, all these. But the Kenai Peninsula is also blessed with an abundance of wildlife from moose to brown bear, Dall sheep to sea otters, seabirds to record-breaking king salmon.

Just over an hour from Anchorage, the Kenai is still steeped in early history, with Russian Orthodox families next door to '60s hippies. ALASKA'S KENAI PENINSULA is the perfect take-along volume, pocket-sized and priced right, filled with color photos and easy-to-read sidebars on natural and human history.

Use Google instead!1
Keep your $10 and search the web instead. 94 small pages. Mostly history, very little info to help you plan your trip. "A Traveler's Guide" - I don't think so.

Don't waste your time or money1
Totally useless book...more like a nice travel brochure. Took us more time to order it (and return it) than to read it. If you need/want a book, spend the money and get a Lonely Planet instead.
