Behind the Scenes

OUR READERSMany thanks to the travellers who used the last edition and wrote to us with helpful hints, useful advice and interesting anecdotes: Richard Becker, Kathleen Drozdowski, Marion Kaempfer, Saskia Kuliga, Kathryn Morris, Laura Sapelly

AUTHOR THANKS

Brendan SainsburyThanks to all the untold bus drivers, tourist-info volunteers, restaurateurs, coffee baristas and indie punk rockers who helped me during my research. Special thanks to my wife, Liz,

and seven-year-old son, Kieran, for their com-pany on the road and to Sebastian Simsch for his insights into the Seattle coffee scene.

Celeste BrashThanks to my family for helping me research beaches and mountains some days, and get-ting on at home without me on others. To old friends who I found scattered across Washing-ton and to too many new friends to mention! It was wonderful to work with Suki Gear and from Brendan Sainsbury’s excellent base text.
