Book Reviews of The Complete Guide to Surfing
Book Review: Well designed and informative
Summary: 5 Stars
Dixon provides the necessary information on surfing with clear text and pictures. His style varies between anecdotal and concise. However, this book is far from comprehensive. The culture involved requires that this reference be supplemented with various other volumes with differing tacts. I recommend that the reader purchase this and several more prosaic works to get the complete view of the surfing world.
