Review: This was a very high quality gift that I gave my ex husband who loves to ski. If you don’t know what to gift a person, buy them a book about something you know they love! Even if they never read it, they will love the thought behind it!

Review: This is a beautifully produced and well researched book of challenging ski runs around the world and a good read for any black run skier. For those not-so-fearless-skiers it's a beautiful coffee table book, and a perfect gift.
