Voyages: The Romance of Cruising

Clarke, the recently-retired travel editor of the Miami Herald, brings together travel writers' descriptions of the world's 100 most exciting ports of call. Contributors evaluate the five most important factors in determining a cruise destination (shopping, cuisine, cultural adventure, entertainment, and romantic ambiance) and rate them on a five-star scale. Their assessments are organized by geographic region and are accompanied by photojournalist Harvey Lloyd's dramatic color photographs. Oversize: 10.5x12.5<">. Annotation c.
