Review by an Onpassage.com contributor, Ken Erickson, Yacht "Serena"

"My particular area is best covered by "Cruising Guide to Prince William
sound, (3rd edition)."  The 3rd version has basically the same great
in-depth coverage as the second edition by Lethcoe,  but, it has been
updated by a different editor.
Prince William Sound is a challenging area to cruise in. Local knowledge is key to safely and efficiently cruising in the area.This guide provides that. Unfortunately, many of the NOAA maps available are still based on the Harriman expedition conducted almost a century ago."

Title:

Small-Boat Cruising to Alaska

Author:

Leif G. Terdal

Published:

Hara Publishing Group; (May 2000)

ISBN:

1883697042

Small-Boat Cruising to Alaska is a gem of a book for anyone who dreams of sailing in the scenic waters of the Northwest. Author Leif Terdal does a first-rate job of presenting a comprehensive guide on what to expect, how to prepare, where to go, and what to see when setting sail for Southeastern Alaska. His recounting of the experiences of vastly different crews on various types of vessels give the book broad scope and appeal, as does his thoughtful discussion of issues dealing with land use and industry, the indigenous peoples, and the history and culture of the area. Essential for boaters yet entertaining for all who read it, Small-Boat Cruising to Alaska belongs on every boat heading north to Alaska
