520 8 Annotation|bThe introduction to this guide contains
general information about the history, land, climate,
flora, and fauna. This introductory chapter also includes
an outline of the range of activities available in the
Florida Keys and the Everglades National Park. The next
chapter, Travel Information takes a deeper look at the ins
and outs of traveling to this area. This section not only
includes important information about costs, transportation,
and getting to Florida but also includes helpful tips
about the best time of the year to visit the area and what
to wear and do on and off-season. The rest of the book
focuses on the national park. It includes sections called
At a Glance; Getting Here Area History Sightseeing;
Adventures; Where to Stay; Where to Eat; and Nightlife.
These sections cover all of the basic what to do and how
to do it. Likewise, several maps accompany each section,
clearly marked with the various facilities described.
However, there are also a few unique aspects within these
sections and within this book in general. For instance,
all the information is based upon the authors' real life
experiences, no internet or third-hand research is
included. This allows the author to explain the various
topics in a much smoother, conversational style given the
reader a feeling of insider knowledge. This aspect also
allow the author to rate lodgings (naming some as author's
picks), give guidelines on the costs of meals (using a
dollar sign rating system), and make recommendations on
what areas to visit and activities to do depending upon
your vacation time. Another unique aspect to this guide is
that it focuses on active things to do. This book does
describe sightseeing potentials but also looks at fishing,
diving, and snorkeling opportunities; formal and informal
nature and eco-tours; and describes variety of cultural
events and other activities. Many of these activities are
low cost or no cost anytime opportunities that can be
enjoyed by walking. These unique aspects make the
information in this book more accessible to those who like
being active when they travel and those who would rather
go fishing or birding than shopping or visiting the local
museums. -- Tami Brady. The newly updated edition of Bruce
Morris' Adventure Guide Florida Keys & Everglades National
Park is out, and any destination-bound Everglades traveler
would do well to obtain a copy. From places to stay and
snorkeling experiences to eco tours and cultural
adventures, the latest updated information is imparted in
a spirited set of outdoor adventure tips. A 'must' for any
serious about Florida. -- Midwest Book Review.
