    About this ebook

    A complete guide for everything you need to experience a great Long Weekend in NANTUCKET, a fascinating island that’s completely different from nearby Martha’s Vineyard.

    “I’ve been wanting to go to Nantucket for years but never got around to it, but my wife thought it sounded like a bad idea, since we always go to the Vineyard. Now that we’ve been for a long weekend to check it out, my wife and I plan to return again within 6 months. She loved it as much as I did. What a charming island!”
    ---Eugene H., Dallas

    “The Delaplaine guide books ‘cut to the chase.’ You get what you need and don’t get what you don’t.” –Wilma K., Seattle

    Updated throughout the year, this concise guide will save you a lot of time.

    =LODGINGS, from budget to deluxe

    = RESTAURANTS, from the finest the area has to offer ranging down to the cheapest (with the highest quality). More than sufficient listings to make your Long Weekend memorable.

    =PRINCIPAL ATTRACTIONS -- don't waste your precious time on the lesser ones. We've done all the work for you.

    =SHOPPING – some interesting out of the way places.
