Nautical Highways, Ferries of the San Juan Islands


book cover, Nautical Highways, Ferries of the San Juan Islands by Robert Demar and Robin Atkins

 

Book of B&W photos by Robert Demar

In this collection of B&W photos of Washington State ferries (the Hiyu, Illahee, and Evergreen State, etc.) and the island community which they serve, Demar documents a slice of Pacific Northwest life during the 1990's. Nautical Highways makes a charming and personal gift or remembrance for an island visitor, as well as an excellent reference or coffee table book for anybody interested in ferry boats.

Meet the ferry boat captains, see the engine room of the Illahee, enjoy aerial perspectives, feel the nip of winter and the heat of summer. A resident of San Juan Island since 1989 and frequent ferry traveler, Demar tells a visual story of this fleet of impressive vessels, their passengers, their crews, and their destinations. Robin Atkins writes lyrical descriptions to accompany the photographs, and adds a brief history about each of the ferries at the end of the book.
