First-time visitors to Hawaii are often unsure of which island to visit and what to choose to do. No Worries Hawaii comes to the rescue with all the tips, advice, and practical information needed to plan the trip of a lifetime. Ready... Readers first take an "armchair voyage," in which they visualize the type of vacation they'd like to have. These likings are matched with what Hawaii has to offer. A clever but simple self-test allows readers to sort through Hawaii's many assets-beaches, nightlife, trails, gardens, attractions-to determine which are desired and which island is best. Set... In the second step, readers take their decisions from part one and receive all the practical and money-saving advice needed to book a vacation that makes the armchair voyage become a real one. Included is a complete list of what to pack. Go!... The third part of the guide contains tips on what to do-and what not to do-after arriving in the islands. Sections include how to plan days to maximize fun and avoid hassle, finding free entertainment and cutting down on restaurant expenses. Readers are advised on how to, and whether to, book tours (snorkeling, sailing, helicopter, horseback, etc.). The book's safety tips are a literal lifesaver, and the everyday advice on driving, hiking, and beach-going are essential for a sensational vacation. At the heart of No Worries Hawaii is its Best Of section, a listing of Hawaii's top things to see and do-museums, rainforests, snorkeling coves, walk-around beach towns, surfing spots, attractions, mountain bike and hiking trails, botanical gardens, ancient sites, luxury resorts, bird-watching forests, waterfalls, remote beaches, family beach parks, and more. Some 150 photographs and 5 maps complement the text. Book jacket.

A fascinating biography of Sarah Palin with exclusive new information, written by People magazine assistant editor Lorenzo Benet—who was the last person to interview her prior to her nomination as John McCain’s vice presidential candidate. Sarah Palin has been the focus of countless news stories on everything from her signature "up-do" to her governorship of Alaska—even her teenage daughter’s pregnancy. Expanding upon the People magazine cover story conducted just before McCain announced his choice for running-mate, Lorenzo Benet offers a never-before-seen look at the life of Sarah Palin—giving readers unprecedented insight into both her personal and professional background. Trailblazer delves into Palin’s relationship with her husband Todd, including details on how they met and their shocking elopement, as well the births of their children, Track, Willow, Piper, Bristol, and the surprise of little Trig. Palin’s career has been a swift if winding journey, leading her and her family in vastly different directions. From her commercial fishing venture to her stint as a local sportscaster for an Anchorage television station, Sarah has worn many hats, eventually leading her to a career in politics. With her beauty, charisma, and political ruthlessness, she quickly skyrocketed from town council member to mayor to governor to vice-presidential nominee. A captivating human interest story, Trailblazer is an intimate portrait of a small-town, self-proclaimed hockey mom who has captured the nation’s attention and rejuvenated the Republican party.

A gripping tale of exploration aboard H.M.S. Challenger, an expedition that laid the foundations for modern oceanography From late 1872 to 1876, H.M.S. Challenger explored the world’s oceans. Conducting deep sea soundings, dredging the ocean floor, recording temperatures, observing weather, and collecting biological samples, the expedition laid the foundations for modern oceanography. Following the ship’s naturalists and their discoveries, earth scientist Doug Macdougall engagingly tells a story of Victorian-era adventure and ties these early explorations to the growth of modern scientific fields. In this lively story of discovery, hardship, and humor, Macdougall examines the work of the expedition’s scientists, especially the naturalist Henry Moseley, who rigorously categorized the flora and fauna of the islands the ship visited, and the legacy of John Murray, considered the father of modern oceanography. Macdougall explores not just the expedition itself but also the iconic place that H.M.S. Challenger has achieved in the annals of ocean exploration and science.
