Extreme Sports: Ski

Rating:
Summary: Almost Worthless
Review: This book is pretty much worthless as a "guide" to anything. The front cover says: "Your Guide to Jumping, ...(etc.)." Yeah right - jumping is first in the list and there is a grand total of senventeen sentences on jumping, all of which could be deduced from watching one ski jumper jump once. Some of the pictures are okay, but if you want to learn anything about skiing, forget this "guide." National Geographic and Pamela Pollack should be ashamed of producing such a worthless and deceiving book on "Extreme Sports." The only thing extreme about this book is how bad it is.
