I just bought it a few weeks ago, and am glad to see it get such good critical notice. The plates are uneven, although I'm intrigued by the McKay plates--and, like you, a bit disappointed in them. I hope it inspires a revised printing, or perhaps even a second edition in the not-too-distant future! I live in South Florida (just a short hop away from the island), and, although I've never been to the island, I have been looking for a good guide for when I eventually make that leap. Many compliments, by the way, on the dozens of excellent reviews on your site. I always look forward to reading your printed ones, and am glad I finally stumbled on your blog!
