Hip, entertaining and inspirational, THE BOOK OF SURFING is a comprehensive dispatch from the heart of surf culture. There is something here for every surfer and aspiring surfer, from making the ride of your life to stories of the legendary underground heroes, and from the best surf spots around the world to an anatomy of classic surf wagons. Designed by A-Side Studio, the book features spectacular images by many of the world’s leading surf photographers, and also includes some great contemporary illustration specially commissioned for the book. Michael Fordham has surfed since his teens and was editor of respected boarding magazine Adrenalin. The ultimate guide to surf culture.
