“Your illustrated guide to the perfect West Coast road trip.”
—C magazine
Roll down the windows, turn up the radio, and take a drive up the world’s most magical coastline.
It’s a beautiful and practical travel guide. An illustrated keepsake. An inspiration to get out and visit. And a celebration of the wild, lush, larger-than-life 2,000 miles that run along the edge of the West Coast through California, Oregon, Washington, and Vancouver Island, where you’ll find everything from stunning vistas and alluring beaches to botanical gardens, nature trails, antiques stores, charming villages, and a handful of great cities along the way.
Created by artist and inveterate road-tripper Danielle Kroll, Pacific Coasting covers all the not-to-be-missed stops, while including maps, packing lists and playlists (yes, what to listen to as you’re driving up to Hearst Castle), and specific guides like Tide Pool Etiquette and Oregon Lighthouses. The result is the offbeat adventure of a lifetime, filled with something new to discover every hour of every day.

      Artist and designer Kroll has filled this travel guide to the Pacific Coast Highway with delightful watercolor illustrations of the beaches, flora and fauna, and quirky small towns awaiting the traveler. The "ultimate road trip" begins in San Diego and proceeds north to Seattle and Vancouver Island. Kroll's emphasis is on experiencing the natural beauty of the coast. Her recommendations are weighted toward beaches, hiking trails, campgrounds, and forests rather than typical tourist attractions. The book is divided into four sections: Southern and Northern California, Oregon, and Washington, and includes driving times between towns and what to expect in terms of road conditions. Kroll sprinkles historical tidbits throughout and includes helpful tips such as packing lists for car, campground, and self; a road trip playlist; the best times of year to visit based on weather and what's in bloom; tide pool etiquette; and a road trip scavenger hunt. She occasionally mentions restaurants and hotels but does not provide exhaustive lists; rather, the book is a relaxing read even for armchair travelers. VERDICT Recommended for anyone thinking of an off-the-beaten-path visit to the West Coast.--Rachel Owens, Daytona State Coll. Lib., FL
