LITTLE BOOK OF SKIING (ORANGE HIPPO) (HB)

For some people, skiing is a serene communication with nature while gliding down a gentle slope in silence; for others, it's a 70-mph descent down an almost vertical piste with an evening of beer, cheese and singing to follow. Whether you're a once-a-year wobble-down-a-nursery-slope type or a superstar in lycra, this book will inform, amaze and amuse, and hopefully make your next epic power day that little bit better. With facts, quotations and insights, this little book reveals and celebrates everything that draws us to beautiful white slopes across the world.
