About the Author

David Stanley has spent much of the past three decades on the road. He has crossed six continents overland and visited 207 of the planet's 245 countries and territories. His travel guidebooks to the South Pacific, Micronesia, Alaska, Eastern Europe, and Cuba opened those areas to independent travelers for the first time.
David's career as a travel writer began with the letters he wrote to Bill Dalton and Tony Wheeler, the pioneers of budget travel to Asia in the 1970s. That feedback soon led to guides of his own. With over a million copies sold, he's still on the road researching guidebooks.
Though David has traveled widely and become a specialist on many parts of the world, he always keeps returning to his favorite area, the South Pacific. He is also the author of Moon Handbooks South Pacific and Moon Handbooks Tahiti. He lives on Vancouver Island, Canada.

Reviews

The latest in the batch of Moon Handbooks releases proves again that Moon is one of the finest travel series around. What sets Moon apart from most guidebooks is the attention to detail, and more importantly, a respect for the topic.
