Reviews “This is a very comprehensive guide to enjoying the natural beauty of the Chesapeake Bay and its surrounding rivers and parks. I have on several occasions used the phone numbers in the book to contact fishing holes and parks, and they all have been reliable and true to their descriptions on my visits. The book gives ample attention to the lesser known regions of the area, and spends equal amounts of time exploring Maryland, Virginia and the Delmarva peninsula. In each geographical section, the authors describe the natural and historic draws, as well as give directions, cite a few restaurants and hotels (with prices). Very helpful for someone who is not very familiar with the area. The thing I really liked about this book was it explained wildlife and history of the Bay region well, as well as explained the delicate environmental state of the Bay in the last 100 years. This book is a must-have for those exploring the Bay region.” “This book provides a lot more then visitor information. I've read several guides to the Chesapeake Bay region and this is the only one that gives the reader a real feel for the area and places an emphasis on the natural environment. Some guide books spend a lot of time on things around the Bay and ignore the BAY itself. This one has it all. I find myself going back to it often.”
