Book Reviews of Greg Noll: The Art Of The Surfboard
Book Review: Gregg Noll The Art of the Surfboard
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent, real insight to the whole start of the surf boom.Book Review: TELL THE TEACHER WE'RE SURFIN'.. SURFIN' USA!
Summary: 4 Stars
DREW KAMPION'S LATEST BOOK PROJECT IS A TOP DRAWER AFFAIR.
HAVING BEEN EDITOR AT BOTH 'SURFER MAGAZINE' AND 'SURFING MAGAZINE',DREW IS EXCEPTIONALLY WELL QUALIFIED TO DELVE INTO EXPLORATIONS OF THE SPORTS HISTORIC PASSAGES. THE ART OF THE SURFBOARD' DOCUMENTING GREG NOLL'S LIFE AND TIMES IS NO EXCEPTION. GREG NOLL AND THE SURFBOARDS THAT HE HAS LEFT IN HIS WAKE ARE INDEED LEGENDARY.
THE BOOK IS PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED; FOR MANY THIS ALONE IS ENOUGH TO JUSTIFY PURCHASING THE BOOK..... BUT FACTOR IN A CONFLUENCE OF KAMPION'S NEAR PERFECT HISTORICAL ACCURACY WITH GREG'S 20/20 CANDID HINDSIGHTS AND THIS RETROSPECTIVE HAS ALL THE MAKINGS OF A BOOK TO BE REFERENCED FOR DECADES TO COME.
IF YOU SHARE A PASSION FOR POST MODERN SURFING AND THE ATTENDING MYSTIQUE THAT SURROUNDS IT, DON'T MISS THIS BOOK
