For a number of years Jackes Patuelli's "Les Petites Anilles - Croisière et Tourisme" has been regarded as the standard guide for french-speaking yachtsmen in the Caribbean.

This translation into english is fully illustrated with photographs from ground level and the air, plus detailed charts.

This popular book covering the the Caribbean from Grenada and Barbados to the Virgin Islands is a translation from Jackes Patuelli's original french version. Each island is dealt with in detail and pilotage notes are followed by tourist information and the usual data on formalities and facilities.

Fully illustrated with plans and photos, many of which are new for this second edition, the guide is packed with interesting and useful background information on the Caribbean, its history, tourism, geography and on sailing in the islands.

The last section of the book, the plue pages, consists of listings of facilities, restaurants, bars, hotels and other information of interest to tourists.

This attractive pilot is the first really new cruising guide to be published for many years and has already established itself as an essential companion for english-speaking yachtsmen.
