Presentation Fly-Fishing
The Definitive Guide to Advanced Techniques
Jeremy Lucas
Summary
A comprehensive guide to fly-fishing for trout and grayling, using a minimalistic approach
Exploring leader-to-hand and leader-only techniques with nymphs and dry flies, this guide pushes the boundaries
of the sport. The established dogma of the old school is questioned, reaching the limits of what is possible with
the conventional approach, while presentation-based technique, which is radically changing the single-handed fly
rod sport, particularly on rivers, is explained. Both the fly line-dominated Western style and the Japanese fixed-
line style are considered, converging into the leader-only style. Watercraft, techniques, tackle, and flies are
9780719806995 explained in depth, with consideration of both rivers and lakes. Focusing on fish rather than on the fly, casting,

G.E.M. Skues
The Man of the Nymph
Tony Hayter
Summary
A magisterial biography of the man widely regarded as the most interesting and innovative fly fisherman of the
20th century, based on research into primary sources
The most innovative fly-fishing angler of modern times, G. E. M. Skues spearheaded and near-singlehandedly
developed the technique of below-surface fly-fishing for trout with nymphs. His pioneering example is now
followed by anglers worldwide. During the six years of research and writing for this volume, Tony Hayter traveled
widely in Europe and the U.S. to unearth a treasure trove of original and hitherto unpublished material, which
throws new light on the life of this great man. Packed with fascinating detail, the book explores many hitherto
unrevealed facets of Skues' life and for the first time sets into proper perspective his early clash with fishing
author Frederic Halford, as well as his inevitable collision with the diehard dry-fly purists in 1938. Also detailed for

Killers in the Water

The New Super Sharks Terrorising the World's Oceans
Sue Blackhall
Summary
A fascinating look at how increased human contact has impacted shark attacks
Sharks are intriguing and beautiful creatures but they can also be deadly. As humans have explored the world's
oceans and exploited them for tourism and recreation, we have found ourselves coming into contact with more
and more sharks. And the outcome can be fatal. From the Seychelles to South Africa, and Australia to North
America, tourists, divers, and surfers have seemingly found themselves under increased threat from unprovoked
shark attacks. Fatal attacks have occurred in locations that were previously thought to be safe, and in late
2010 the Egyptian resort of Sham el-Sheikh was rocked by an incredible five shark attacks in a matter of weeks.
But are sharks really ruthless, vicious killers, or are they simply reacting to humans invading their habitat? Has
9781857826692 the number of shark attacks increased in recent years? What can be done to prevent them? All these questions

Fishing's Strangest Days

Extraordinary but True Stories from over Two Hundred Years of Angling History
Tom Quinn
Summary
Now in a new gift edition, this collection is swimming with amusing, colorful, true tales that sound
almost too fishy to be be believable
From dead-sheep bait to whopper-sized catches ("It was this big!"), intoxicated trout, and flying pike, this
collection presents the choicest gems of bizarre fishing facts. Consider the Oxford scientist who in 1910
discovered the marvelous life-giving properties of brandy to fish who had otherwise gasped their last. Or the
nine-year-old boy fishing for trout who caught a large mussel-containing no less than 40 pearls-and managed to
earn more in one day than his father, a farm worker, had earned in the last five years. Then there's the case of
the two Americans who had an argument about whether it would be possible to cast a fly from the roof of the
Savoy Hotel into the Thames. The dispute was finally settled when one of them secured himself to a chimney,
9781907554636 and, with the help of a policeman who stopped traffic on the Embankment, finally achieved the feat. Like a tin of

Summary
This book delves into the varied fishing methods found around the coast of the Bristol Channel. From herring

The Upstream Wet Fly

Terry Lawton
Summary
This fascinating and informative book provides a history of the development of wet fly-fishing, particularly the
Scottish and North Country schools and their leading protagonists. The Scottish school was led by William C.
Stewart, who was the first advocate of fishing and casting upstream. His book, The Art of Trout Fishing More
Practically Applied to Clear Water, originally published in 1857, is still one of the most popular and enduring books
on the subject. The North Country school was developed principally by Thomas E. Pritt, H.H. Edmonds, and N.N.
Lee. North Country spiders are still fished extensively and led to the development of flymphs and other soft-
hackle patterns. However, the development of wet fly-fishing was not restricted to the rivers and streams of the
north of England and the Scottish border; G.E.M. Skues was one of the few anglers to appreciate the possible
application of North Country fishing methods to southern chalk streams and H.C. Cutcliffe wrote about wet fly
fishing on the rivers and streams of the West Country. Discover the history of upstream wet fly fish...

Black Friday
The Eyemouth Fishing Disaster of 1881
Peter Aitchison
Summary
Black Friday is the astonishing true story of a coastal community that lost 189 men in a single afternoon.
Britain's worst fishing disaster decimated the coastal community of Eyemouth, yet is an almost forgotten part of
the past. One hundred and twenty-five years on, this is the story of that storm, told through the accounts of
fishermen at sea caught up in the maelstrom, of their families waiting anxiously for news, and of its historical
context. At its heart is a gripping narrative of survival and high adventure when Eyemouth was the centre of a
massive smuggling ring. Author Peter Aitchison does more than simply spin a good yarn: as a direct descendant,
his account of how these fishermen plied their trade, led their lives and met their fate in the 1880s is an
insightful and compelling read. Previously published as: Children of the Sea.

Red Summer
The Danger and Madness of Commercial Salmon Fishing in Alaska
Bill Carter
Summary
Painting a visceral portrait of the life of commercial fishermen in the remote Eskimo village of Egekik, Alaska, this
intense memoir depicts the author's four summers spent with a crew of seasonal salmon netters. Distinguishing
itself from a typical adventure, this recollection relates the unforgiving supervision of the experienced female
crew-chief, who along with her rugged shipmates lives by the credo: do the work or leave. From an encounter
with an overly-inquisitive grizzly bear and being swamped by a mother-ship in open waters to the customary run-
ins with colorful locals, this record is certain to appeal to adventurers, nature lovers, and armchair travelers
alike. In the tradition of Jon Krakauer, Peter Matthiessen, and Sebastien Junger, this is an honest and vivid story
of what it means to leave so-called civilization behind for a life full of danger, excitement, untold beauty, and
physically grueling work.

Summary
Much has been written about fishing dry-flies, nymphs, and lures, but far less attention has been paid to wet-

redress the balance demonstrating that wet-flies still catch trout in spectacular fashion and are as effective
today as ever they were in past centuries.

Till Death or Fly Fishing Do Us Part

Thomas R. Pero
Summary
From wickedly funny to sweetly poignant, these humorous essays explore how an obsession with fly-fishing
affects a person's romantic relationships. The contributors muse upon strange fishing lore, the follies of human
nature, and whether to go or stay home when one's partner is crazy for time on the water. Some of the hilarious
situations to be found in these pages include that of a young obstetrician husband whose trout-fishing weekends
in the Catskills take precedence over delivering babies; a wife who comes close to torching all the fly rods,
chicken necks, and fishing books right in the front yard; and a school librarian who wakes up in a soaked sleeping
bag when her boyfriend takes her backpacking for brook trout.

Zander Fishing
A Complete Guide
Mark Barrett, Neville Fickling
Summary
Zander, or pike-perch, have been shrouded in controversy ever since they were first introduced into Britain's
rivers and drains in 1963. They were soon blamed for the decline in fish stocks in the Fens, where they were
initially introduced. Notwithstanding this, 40 years after their introduction, zander are now widely accepted and
are regarded by many anglers as almost a cult fish. Revealing the secrets of where and how to catch zander,
this helpful guide addresses topics such as zander tackle, baits, rigs, fishing methods, and techniques; how to
locate your prey as well as how to land, handle, and photograph your fish; and the zander waters of the Fens,
the Warwickshire Avon, the canals of the West Midlands, the Severn, and elsewhere.

Fishing's Strangest Days

Extraordinary But True Stories
Tom Quinn
Summary
From dead-sheep bait to whopper-sized catches ("It was this big!"), intoxicated trout, and flying pike, this
collection presents the choicest gems of bizarre fishing facts. Consider the Oxford scientist who in 1910
discovered the marvelous life-giving properties of brandy to fish who had otherwise gasped their last. Or how
about the nine-year-old boy fishing for trout who caught a large mussel-containing no less than 40 pearls-and
managed to earn more in one day than his father, a farm worker, had earned in the last five years. Then there's
the case of the two Americans who had an argument about whether it would be possible to cast a fly from the
roof of the Savoy hotel into the Thames. The dispute was finally settled when one of them secured himself to a
chimney, and, with the help of a policeman who stopped traffic on the Embankment, finally achieved the feat.

The Loch Fisher's Bible

Stan Headley
Summary
Scotland is a country amply endowed with water. Most of this water takes the form of lochs and, until
comparatively recently, almost every one of these lochs contained wild brown trout. Where the rich man had his
salmon, the fishing of wild brown trout has been the heritage of the common man for generations. Out of this
legacy has come the art form which we call traditional, or simply "loch style," fly fishing. Here, Stan Headley has
succeeded in bringing this ancient and venerable practice up to date, and in doing so has debunked and
demystified loch fishing in particular and fly fishing in general. He has replaced myth, fable, and fairy story with
science, technology, and understanding. The author has always maintained that a thinking angler is a successful
angler, and the purpose of these pages is not simply to inform but, more important, to encourage enlightened
thought on a fascinating subject-wild trout and how to catch them. Now, armed with this unique book, both
novice and experienced fly fisher alike will have a far greater understanding of fish behavior and successful

The First Source-to-Sea Descent of the Congo River

Summary
An exhilarating and terrifying account of the historic first source-to-sea descent of the Congo
At 2,922 miles, the Congo is the eighth longest river and the deepest in the world, with a flow rate second only

highlands of Zambia through war-torn Central Africa. With no outside help whatsoever he faced swamps,
waterfalls, man-eating crocodiles, hippos, aggressive snakes, and spider webs the size of houses. He collapsed
from malaria, and was arrested, intimidated, and chased. On one stretch, known as "The Abattoir" for its history
of cannibalism and reputation for criminal activity, the four brothers he hired as bodyguards were asked by
locals, "Why haven't you cut his throat yet?" But he also received tremendous hospitality from proud and brave

One Shark, No Swim

Lehua Parker, Corey Egbert
Summary
Something is troubling Zader Westin, and it goes beyond painting murals for the pavilion with Mr. Halpert, his new
obsession with knives, and even the water allergy that means even a single drop burns like hot lava on his skin.
Zader can't stop thinking about the incredibly vivid dream he had in which Leia called him brother before jumping
into the ocean and turning into a shark. Zader has a lot of questions, not least of which are why he's always
hungry, restless at night, and feels a constant itch on the back of his neck. With his brother Jay at surf camp
and Uncle Kahana strangely elusive, though, Zader is left alone to divine what's happening, including why
someone-or something-is stalking him. This exciting middle-grade novel reveals a little-known side of Hawaii.

To the River
Olivia Laing
Summary
A beautiful, lyrical book tells the tale of the river in which Virginia Woolf drowned, and heralds the arrival of a
major new voice in nature writing
One midsummer week more than 60 years after Virginia Woolf drowned in the Ouse in 1941, Olivia Laing walked
that same Sussex river from source to sea. The result is a passionate investigation into how history resides in a
landscape-and how ghosts never quite leave the places they love. Along the way, Laing explores the roles rivers
play in human lives, tracing their intricate flow through literature and mythology alike. She excavates all sorts of
stories from the Ouse's marshy banks, from the brutal Barons' War of the 13th century to the "Dinosaur Hunters,"
the 19th-century amateur naturalists who first cracked the fossil code. Central among these ghosts is, of
course, Virginia Woolf herself: her life, her writing, and her watery death. Woolf is the most constant companion

Herring
A History of the Silver Darlings
Mike Smylie
Summary
The unusual history of the herring and those whose lives have revolved around getting it to the tables of the
masses
The story of herring is entwined in the history of commercial fishing. For more than two millennia, herring have
been commercially caught and its importance to the coastal peoples of Britain cannot be measured. At one point
tens of thousands were involved in the catching, processing, and sale of herring, and many towns on Britain's
East Coast grew rich on the backs of the "silver darlings." This book looks at the effects of the herring on the
people who caught them, the unique ways of life, the superstitions of the fisher folk, their boats, and the
communities who lived for the silver darlings. With a wealth of illustrations, this fascinating book reveals the
little-known history of the herring-and for those who have neglected the silver darlings for lesser fish such as
cod and haddock, there are a number of mouthwatering recipes to try.

The Heroic Life of the Atlantic Salmon
Richard Shelton
Summary
Combining exquisite natural history with beguiling autobiographical and historical narrative, a portrait of a fish
whose story is closely intertwined with our own
The Atlantic salmon is an extraordinary and mysterious fish. Here, Richard Shelton combines memoir and deep
scientific knowledge to reveal, from the salmon's point of view, both the riverine and marine worlds in which it
lives. He explores this iconic fish's journey to reach its feeding grounds in the northern oceans before making the
return over thousands of miles to the brooks of its birth to reproduce. Along the way, Shelton describes the
feats of exploration that gave us our first real understanding of the oceans, and shows how this iconic fish is a
vital indicator of the health of our rivers and oceans. Above all, this is the story of Richard Shelton's lifelong
passion for the sea and his attempt to solve the perennial enigmas of the salmon's secret life.

Shark
In Peril in the Sea
David Owen
Summary
Dispeling myths about shark attacks and offering facts about shark conservation and the history of shark-human
interaction, this guide comprehensively overturns negative and damaging perceptions of sharks
Thoroughly researched and written in clear, jargon-free prose by a shark "outsider," it reveals everything about
these sophisticated guardians of the oceans. The shark has been the planet's dominant predator for millions of
years. But in just 50 years all sharks have become threatened by human activity; victims of a deadly
combination of overfishing, pollution, and the destruction of their habitats. Although scientific knowledge of
sharks is increasing rapidly, there is still much to learn about these complex and elusive animals-and for many
species it may already be too late. Despite this, in the popular imagination sharks remain poorly understood and,
all too often, despised. This book stands up for sharks-big or small, scary or harmless.

At the Water's Edge

A Personal Quest for Wildness
John Lister-Kaye
Summary
For the last 30 years nature writer John Lister-Kaye has taken the same circular walk from his home deep in a
Scottish glen up to a small lake. Each day brings a new observation or an unexpected encounter-a fragile
spider's web, an osprey struggling to lift a trout from the water, or a woodcock exquisitely camouflaged on her
nest-and every day, on his return home, he records his thoughts in a journal. Drawing on this lifetime of close
observation, John Lister-Kaye encourages a second look at nature and discovery of its wildness. He also forges
wonderful connections between the most unlikely subjects, from photosynthesis and the energy cycle to Norse
mythology, weasels, and the overpopulation of the planet. At the Water's Edge is a lyrical hymn to wildlife, and a
powerful warning to respect and protect it.

Rough Seas
The Life of a Deep-Sea Trawlerman
James Greene
Summary
A trawlerman's life was hard, often up against bad weather, rough seas, and black frosts. Although on calm days
it could also be a pleasure. In this eventful memoir, deep-sea trawlerman James Greene relates his life at sea,
from his childhood when his father would take him out in some of the worst gales and hurricanes imaginable and
his early career as a deckhand learner at Fleetwood to obtaining his skipper's ticket in Grimsby and the many
experiences-both disastrous and otherwise-to occur throughout his time at sea are included in this book. During
his career, he was involved in ship collisions and fires, arrested for poaching, fired upon by Icelandic gunboats, in
countless storms, and even swept overboard in icy conditions off the Russian coast. The British trawling industry
is now a by-gone age and people are beginning to forget the adventures and hardships that characterised this
profession. This book seeks to keep the memories of a once-great industry alive.

The Lonely Sea and the Sky

Sir Francis Chichester
Summary
The complete autobiography of the great adventurer Sir Francis Chichester, the first and fastest man to
singlehandedly circumnavigate the globe
Aged 18 and with a taste for adventure, Francis Chichester emigrated to New Zealand with ten pounds in his
pocket. He tried his hand at a number of ill-fated careers-a boxer, shepherd, lumberjack, and gold prospector, to
name a few-before returning to England. Having qualified as a pilot, in 1929 he embarked on his most famous solo
flight in the de Havilland Gipsy Moth from England to Australia. Shortly afterward, he survived a near-death
catastrophe in an attempt to fly solo around the world. Turning to sailing, he won the first single-handed
transatlantic yacht race in Gipsy Moth III, despite having been diagnosed with cancer two years previously. In
1967, he became the first person to sail around the world solo from west to east via the great capes. Here, his
9781849532013 entire life-including his greatest failures and successes-are told by the man who experienced it all firsthand. A
Pub Date: 5/11/12 foreword from his son, Giles Chichester, is also included.

One Man, One Bike and the First Lap Around Australia on Used Cooking Oil
Paul Carter
Summary
In the spirit of Ewan and Charlie's Long Way Round, another hilarious, high-octane, seat-of-the-pants
adventure from the slightly crazy Paul Carter
circumnavigating Australia on a biodiesel motorcycle
At 40 years old, a successful writer, husband, and father, no longer toiling on offshore drilling rigs, was Paul
Carter happily nestled in the cotton wool of suburban life enjoying the fruits of his labor? Not likely. With his
manic life left far behind and the perfect opportunity to take it easy stretched before him what else would a
middle-aged, bike-obsessed, man want? Yes, that's right, he'd want to be the first guy to ride around Australia
on an underpowered experimental motorcycle that runs on used cooking oil, wouldn't he? He embarks on a
9781741757026 rollicking, often unhinged, and downright dangerous quest that starts on an environmentally friendly motorcycle
Pub Date: 9/1/11 built on a shoestring budget by students, and ends with a plan to break the motorcycle land speed record for

The Last Man Across the Atlantic

Paul Heiney
Summary
In 1960, when Sir Francis Chichester first raced single-handed across the Atlantic, it was widely regarded as a
voyage only for the insane. Nowadays, the Singlehanded Transatlantic Race is not only accorded the greatest of
respect, but it's also recognized as a true test of stamina, seamanship, and navigation. But this doesn't mean
that it's exclusively a race for heroes. In 2005, Paul Heiney, an amateur sailor by any measure, entered the race
to prove that the spirit of the transatlantic pioneers can still get you from one side of the Atlantic to the other,
if you try hard enough. He sailed in a standard family cruiser, in which he had the utmost confidence; but his
trust in his own abilities was much less certain. The Last Man Across the Atlantic is an engrossing account of
what it was like to be out there alone.

How to Sail a Boat

Matt Vance
Summary
To sail a boat is a magical, and sometimes mystical, experience. The sailor is free from the cares of life on land,
entirely absorbed in the enterprise of moving a craft across the water. For the uninitiated, though, willingly
putting oneself at the mercy of nature's unpredictable forces, winds, waves, and weather can seem quite
daunting. Here, Matt Vance takes readers inside the mind of a sailor, from the first scary moment of handling a
boat solo to the exhilaration of sailing across oceans and discovering new worlds. His stories and those of his
fellow madmen will captivate sailors young and old and have landlubbers yearning for the blue horizon.

Wooden Fishing Boats of Scotland

James Pottinger
Summary
With the gradual phasing out of wooden fishing boats of Scotland it is timely to record some of these handsome
vessels. The general opinion is that in the era 1960-80 builders produced some of the most shapely and graceful
craft, a testament to the skill of the boat builders and designers. Initially the designs were a collaboration of
builders and skippers, but later the implementation of statutory rules demanded a more structured approach by
qualified naval architects, which inevitably resulted in a certain degree of standardisation. In contrast to James
A. Pottinger's earlier books, which included all types of Scottish fishing boats both large and small, this new
illustrated volume concentrates solely on the graceful wooden boats, regarded by many to be the best looking
boats of all, with some images of initial keel and backbone construction through to the melancholy sight of
beautiful craft being cut up. In earlier days such boats were scrapped only due to old age, but sadly political
9780752487571 factors now often dictate the destruction of classic wooden craft.

This Water Goes North

Dennis Weidemann
Summary
From the tranquil farmland waters of Minnesota to the treacherous wilderness rapids of Manitoba, four young
men in two old canoes experience an adventure that every kid talks about, but few take. With leaky tents, little
experience, and no TV cameras or big-time sponsors, the lads set out in 1979 to paddle 1,400 miles north to
Hudson Bay. Why? Why not! Driven by a youthful sense of adventure, they took the chance of a lifetime just to
see what lay around the next turn. Sit in their canoe as they glide through smooth waters and survive rushing
rivers. Experience with them the desolation of true wilderness and go on humorous escapades with local
characters. With graceful storytelling, Dennis Weidemann weaves this richly diverse tale of near disasters,
splendid sunsets, bootleggers, Mounties, polar bears, and the indomitable spirit of youth. Share the dream that
still lives, and that will surely inspire others.

The Race Within

Passion, Courage, and Sacrifice at the Ultraman Triathlon
Jim Gourley, Hillary Biscay
Summary
The Ultraman Triathlon, one of the most remarkable endurance races in the world, is a three-day, 320-mile race
that circumnavigates the Big Island of Hawaii. With only 40 competitors allowed in each year, this invitation-only
event hosts some of the most superlative athletes on the planet. The Race Within discusses the 30-year history
of the sport and race director Jane Bockus, former Pan Am flight attendant who has never done a triathlon, yet
has dedicated herself to keeping the event true to its founding spirit for decades. This book follows Jane, her
assistants, and a small cast of athletes through an entire year-from the end of the 2012 Ultraman to the 2013
event-and shows how they faced new challenges to the growth and well-being of the event, and were forced to
question if old traditions could survive in a world of constantly-evolving sports entertainment. Granted full
access to the race and the athletes, author Jim Gourley presents a look at this unique event and examines what

Australia's Century of Surf

How a Big Island at the Bottom of the World Became the Greatest Surfing Nation on Earth
Tim Baker
Summary
In 100 years, surfing in Australia has morphed from exotic Pacific Island curio to regimented training for life
savers, from counterculture revolution to respectable mainstream sport. Along the way, it has shaped coastal
migrations, spawned vast business empires and design innovations, produced sports stars and spectacular
casualties in equal measure, helped the beach overtake the bush as Australians' national, natural habitat of

Harpoon at a Venture
Gavin Maxwell
Summary
In this, Gavin Maxwell’s first book, he tells the story of his attempts to establish a shark fishery on the tiny
Hebridean island of Soay after World War II. In absorbing detail, he describes the challenge and drama of the
shark hunt, the development of catching techniques and equipment, the men who worked with him, and the
frustrations involved with attempting to start a new enterprise in postwar Scotland. Each action-filled chapter
includes beautifully observed descriptions of sky, sea, and the individual islands of the Hebrides, as well as their
wildlife—from gannets, puffins, Manx shearwaters and fulmars to seals, dolphins, and whales.

Tim Baker
Summary
In a story for anyone who has ever dreamed of an alternative to the busy, micro-scheduled existence of work,
school, shopping, and housework, surf writer Tim Baker and his family grab their surfboards and hit the open road
All surfers dream of shedding responsibilities and answering the siren song of the ocean swells, though for most,
it is an ideal that recedes as family, career, and provider commitments overwhelm the wanderlust of youth. But
surf writer Tim Baker decided to shelve the worldly pressures, pack up the family and a few trusty surfboards,
and take a Great Australian surfing road trip. Inspired by the dreams of his youth, and in the face of looming
middle-age, Baker and his wife Kirsten started in January 2011 from their home in Queensland, heading south
down the east coast of Australia. Over the next six to eight months, they circumnavigated the country, as Baker
documents the state of surf culture and the coastline, and the array of colorful characters encountered along
the way. This is a lively, colorful handbook on how to trade your life for another variety, the d...

Can't Swim, Can't Ride, Can't Run

From Common Man to Ironman
Andy Holgate
Summary
This book is both a lesson in true grit and determination, but its goal is one that is attainable. Andy isn't a
sporting superstar, he holds down a 9-5 job and all the pressures that go with it; he isn't blessed with speed and
talent; there are no multi-million pound sponsorship deals; yet this remarkable "common man" is inspiring in a way
that some of today's sporting superstars have forgotten how to be. You wouldn't recognize Andy in the street,
yet his story provides valuable lessons to us all: "Never give up" and "Anything is possible." Can't Swim, Can't
Ride, Can't Run follows Andy Holgate's epic journey from being an overweight librarian to an Ironman triathlete.
Before he could even begin the rollercoaster ride which amassed more punctures than Andy cares to remember,
this would-be Superman had first to buy a second-hand bike and take swimming lessons. Along the way, he
ended up in hospital, dealt with family crises, encountered crocodiles and deadly amoebas, and persuaded his

Notes for a Young Surfer

Clifton Evers
Summary
This complex look at surf culture explores its inherent masculinity, as well as the violence, racism, misogyny, turf
wars, and homophobia that are as much a part of the sport as ocean swells. Both a touching memoir and a sharp
social critique, this analysis reveals the unwritten codes that rule all aspects of a surfer's life-from body image
and national identity to politics and friendship-and the issues that have imprinted themselves on Australian
beaches since the Cronulla riots.

Riding the Magic Carpet

A Surfer's Odyssey to Find the Perfect Wave
Tom Anderson
Summary
"The right-hand point at Jeffreys Bay is one of the surfing world's most exciting finds, and from the age of
twelve it had been my life's purpose to surf there." J-Bay, South Africa, has the fantasy, the almost mythical
waves every surfer dreams of riding once in their lifetime. But Tom wouldn't go until he was ready. He would seek
out surf-spots from the virgin reef-breaks of the Outer Orkneys to the temple point-breaks of Indonesia, from
the beautiful beaches of France to the wilds of Sri Lanka, on his quest to ride the waves of his dreams. Get on
the road, get stoked, and get in the water.
