DescriptionSurfing is a way of life. The author Gregory Maube has been surfing since the age of four (he is now twenty-seven). He gives us an inside look at the day-to-day of the sport: the language, the stars, the surving sites, the visceral nomadism -intellectual and geographical- the poetry, the search for teh Grail (the perfect wave), the cult films and the mythical champions . . .from Duke and the sports Hawaiian pioneers to todays over-publicised film stars. . ..its all here. Spectacular photos by Sylvain Cazenave, the signature of this unique world. (Photoessay book, introduction to surf and surfers at a basic level for a european audience).On View
