Book Reviews of So You Want to Live in Hawaii

Book Review: A realistic and helpful guidebook to moving to Paradise...
Summary: 5 Stars

A book was published last year entitled "The Death of Distance", by Francis Cairncross. In it she describes how things will change in the next century because communications and the Internet will allow people to operate virtually from any part of the globe.

For evidence of this trend, one has to look only as far as the Corona beer commercials urging us to "change our latitude", or to the sell-out crowds and legions of "Parrotheads" that follow Jimmy Buffet, the troubadour of a life in the tropics.

Moving to Hawai'i may seem an impossible dream, but it can be done. More and more people have the means -- and in the coming years many places like Hawai'i will cater to the cybercommuter, to the artist, to the entrepreneur.

Toni Polancy provides valuable wisdom to aid in such an important decision as a move to one of the most beautiful, but remote spots on our shrinking planet. "So you want to live in Hawaii" is a well written, funny, warm and above all -- realistic look at life in one of the last magical places in our country. You simply cannot afford to consider moving here without reading this book first. Or even if you are just considering a vacation here, the knowledge in this book will add depth to your experience.
