Frommer's Honolulu, Waikiki and Oahu

A resident of the Big Island, Jeanette Foster has skied the slopes of Mauna Kea--during a Fourth of July ski meet, no less--and gone scuba diving with manta rays off the Kona Coast. A prolific writer widely published in travel, sports, and adventure magazines, she's also the editor of Zagat's Survey to Hawaii's Top Restaurants. In addition to writing this guide, Jeanette is the author of Frommer's Hawaii Day by Day, Frommer's Hawaii, Frommer's Maui, Frommer's Hawaii from $80 a Day, Frommer's Kauai, Frommer's Hawaii with Kids, and Frommer's Portable Big Island.
