As a travel writer and photographer, Andrew Hempstead has spent many years exploring, photographing, and writing about Canada. Andrew is a happy resident of Alberta, where he lives with his wife, Dianne, daughter, Brio, and their two dogs in Banff. A veteran explorer of Alberta, Andrew has traveled mountain highways and hiked countless trails, exploring new places and updating old favorites. He spends as much time as possible on the road, traveling incognito, experiencing the many and varied delights of the region just as his readers do. The result is the book you hold in front of you, the most comprehensive and up-to-date source of information available for traveling in Alberta.

Andrew has been writing since the late 1980s, when he left an established career in advertising and took off for Alaska, linking up with veteran travel writer Deke Castleman to research and update the fourth edition of the Moon Handbook to Alaska and the Yukon. Since then he has produced several guides to Canada, including guidebooks to British Columbia, Vancouver and Victoria, the Canadian Rockies, Western Canada, and Nova Scotia. He is also the coauthor of Moon guidebooks to Atlantic Canada, Australia, and New Zealand and a contributor to Moon Handbooks San Juan Islands, Road Trip USA, Northwest Best Places, Eyewitness Guide to the USA, as well as the updater to the last three editions of The Illustrated Guide to New Zealand. His writing and photographs have appeared in a wide variety of other media, including National Geographic Traveler, Travesias, Where, Interval World, Microsoft’s Automap, and on the Alaska Airlines and Expedia websites.

The website www.westerncanadatravel.com showcases Andrew’s work, while also providing invaluable planning tips for travelers heading to Canada.
