••• About the Author •••
Lynne is the author of Adventure Guides to dozens of eastern Caribbean islands, a coauthor for DK Eyewitness Guide to the Caribbean, and a content provider for several travel web sites. She lives in the Arizona desert and escapes to the islands as often as she can justify research trips to the IRS.
Paul is the primary photographer for this app, and his photos illustrate Lynne's Adventure Guides. More importantly, he is the official expert on driving narrow, twisting island roads, even after dark, particularly in the rain. A former 767 captain for Delta Air Lines, he is never lost and always on time.
