Advance Praise
"Midwest Book Review: The first-person descriptions read with the drama of fiction and the excitement of journal writing ....
This travelogue is highly recommended reading for two audiences: those who would undertake a cruise to Canada's eastern seaboard themselves, and others who look for lively moment-by-moment ""you are there"" descriptions of the adventure.
The Book Review Directory: The Lockwoods write with fun, interesting detail, which brings their experiences alive for the reader. Because of the richness with which they describe the various places they visit, we feel like we're traveling with them and aren't merely receiving facts.
Reader's Favorite: Cruising from Boston to Montreal immerses the reader in the geography, history, and culture of each of the locations where the MS Veendam stops. ... Their accounts of stops made in Canada were marvelous."
