I'm taking a cruise to Alaska in June, so I'm reading up everything I can about cruising.  This book is broken up into two parts - one is a travelogue of the authors adventures on a specific cruise. The other part is a quite comprehensive list of tips for cruising in general, and on the Carnival Cruise lines in specific.I enjoyed the travelogue - it's fun to read about the author's adventures, see his pictures and pick up his joie de vivre.  It definitely got me in the mood for my cruise.The tips were excellent as well.  I'll be re-reading them as we get closer.  I realized already that I probably made some mistakes in booking my cruise, and am going to make sure that I don't make any more by reading through the tips and following them.Excellent book that comes at an excellent time for me.
