Joshua L. ★★★★★

Bought this for my dad who's been skiing since the 70s, and he keeps it on the coffee table now. The vintage photos tracing the early Alpine pioneers are genuinely gorgeous, and the history sections gave him plenty to argue about at dinner.

Matthew ★★★★★

Bought this as a gift for my dad who's been skiing since the 70s, and he barely put it down all weekend. The illustrations are genuinely gorgeous, and the section tracing how modern skiing developed kept him reading aloud at dinner.

George Z. ★★★★★

The vintage photos of the early Alpine pioneers alone are worth the price. I've been skiing for thirty years and still learned a few things from the history chapters, and the illustrations make it a great coffee table book too.
