The Book of American Skiing Overview

This is not a book on ski technique. Nor is it a history of skiing. Rather, it is a panoramic view of the people, the resorts, the races, the controversies, the fashions, the houses, the hills, the avalanches, the food, the travel, the fun in skiing. Here are stories of the Olympics, Olympians, and the great instructors. Here we read about the shortswing revolution, and about the no less remarkable revolution in ski fashions. Finally, keeping the welfare of his fellow skiers in mind, the author has thoughtfully included a group of preseason exercises and some recipes for after-ski drinks.
